Does anyone have any experience with Smittybilt grille guards?
I was thinking about getting one for my Expedition, but I was unsure if I would be getting a good quality guard or not.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No direct experience. Knew guys that had the stuff years ago in San Diego, it was good stuff.

Check their site for where to buy, you can probably go see samples or contact them about their warranty etc if it's not on the site.

Good for looks, not for protection. If you want protection, get something built heavier then 14 gauge wall.

14 gauge is still better than nothing when hitting a deer at 70 mph. Uprights provide a lot of structual protection.
