Light bar
I still have not spent all of my income tax money yet, so I was looking into some light bars for the front of my 2001 f-250.Westin has the Bullbar( but I would prefer it in black) does the bar cover the factory fog lights ? Pro Comp has 2 styles(in black also) but does either style require the drilling into the bumper? I was looking into dressing up the front alittle with a couple lights but did not want one of those large pushbars.Does anyone have any info on any of these, or have something else I can look intoThanks ED

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 14-Apr-02 AT 07:25 PM (EST)]You might want to look into the WAAG Pushbar, you could also look into Grizzly. I Know Grizzly offers a wide range of products, im sure they have a smaller Push Bar. This isnt realy considered a Push Bar, but it will give you some idea of the Quality of the grizzly product. Ive has that brush guard for over a year now, and it is still as beautiful as the day i bought it!

I like my alloy tech one piece aluminum. Not every one has them and you don't have to worry about rust.
You might try try the pre runner style light bars from Reaper Racing, Fabtech etc..

I have to agree MrRottnDog, your alloy tech is sweet!! Saving my pennies and hopefully in a month or two, I'll get me one.
Don't worry, I live in NY so no one will laugh at us for dressing the same!!

I think you'll like it! If you have visited their website you will see pictures of the grill guard mounted on a superduty etc.
The price is inline with other grill guards. They list it for 700+ on their website.. But they will sell them for $685 and the shipping is free.
It is sent by truck and it can be slow.
After three weeks of waiting, I called and they eventually concluded it had been lost or stolen. :-X23
The guy who runs the east coast office would have returned my money at that point.. but he is a very likable guy and I really wanted the guard.
I reordered and received it two weeks later
They package it very well.. so nothing less than something very heavy running over it should damage it.
I promise to stay in Chicago and never drive it up to the 'Big Apple'!

I put a Smitty Bilt stainless steel bumper guard on my 2001 F250 and it has worked out really well. They make it in black powder coat also. See my gallery for pics under "Big Red".

I installed a Warn Light Bar w/ PIAA 520 Fogs, and Hella 500 Driving Lights. The bar was purchased through www.ok4wd.com It installed easily and looks good to boot. See the pics inthe Galley under LouV14 pics.

I just purchased a Westin Bull Bar (chrome) for my 2000 SD F250 PSD.
It looks great and was worth the money ($$405. incl shipping).
Installation was easy except for holding up the bumper
