I have a 2006 Jeep Liberty Sport 4X4, and I am looking for a inexpensive but good brush guard that I can install some lights on that will look good. Where is a good place to buy one for a good price? I am in Lexington, KY.

Welcome to LOST! I can not help you with the brush guard but be sure to stop into the Midwest Section here. We just got back from a trip to Lexington, KY and are planning another trip there soon.

Hope you can make it out with us sometime!!

There are quite a few brush guards available. Many can be found on my KJ Links and Parts site:

Here is a map of the area we went to on are last trip. The 49er Truck stop is at exit 49 on I-75. We are planning another trip right now. Just look in the Midwest section.

I would'nt bother with a brush guard unless all you want it for is looks.

They tend to bend and stick into headlights and radiators, and get caught on brush and snag you.

I would look into a new bumper....more protection, plus some come with a bull bar.

Did you have any trouble fitting the brush guard? I got the stainless steel smittybilt one off ebay also for my 06 Sport CRD, but the brackets hit the bumper when I try to attach them. Did you have to cut your bumper to make the brackets fit?

You're taking about the two outlined panels on the bottom of the bumper? I was thinking about cutthing those out, but it seemed like the bracket would still hit the bumper. Good to know. Thanks.
