I don't wheel nearly hard enough to justify the cost of a full bumper, so I've been looking at lighter brush guards, specifically the Warthog - http://www.warthoginc.com/product.html

I like that they say you don't lose your front tow hooks, but I'm curious as to how sturdy the brush guard and it's mount to the tow hooks is. Anyone have any experience with this product?

Tree stump,

Thats a heap of money for a brush gaurd.

You should read some of the debates between myself and Hammer.

Before I say hammer is right pertaining to your situation, I'd have to ask whats your intended purpose.

It does do well for shopping carts. It works for pushing brush far enough back to snap back and scratch your paint.

It offers no significant low speed front end protection (which is why i was looking for one for a reciever hitch)
