Question Grill Guard

Hey guys, did'nt know where else to post this, but if anybody has any tips on putting on a Westin Grill Guard on a 2003 F-250SD, please let me know. I am doing it myslef and they say it's easy, but I don't know about it from looking at the install diagram on thier website. Please let me know any tips or mistakes that were made if you guys have put one on, thanks!!

I also put one on my 99 f-250, and it was pretty easy. Definitely a 2-3 person job though. If I remember right you have to take the top bolts out of the front of the bumper and loosen the bottom bolts. You then slide the grille guard over the lower bolts and put the top ones back in, then tighten everything up.

The bumper tends to move around a bit once you get all the bolts out/loosened so its nice to have a couple of guys to move it and the grille guard around while you're trying to get the bolts back in there hole.

This is how my sportsman one piece went on my truck, I guess it could be a little different on your's but I'm not sure without looking.
