TAC Bull Bar for 2009-2018 Dodge RAM 1500 (Excl. Rebel Model) Pickup Truck 3” Stainless Steel Front Bumper Grille Guard Brush Guard

Love the design. Different than the usual tubular bull bar. The instructions are some what difficult but just keep reading and go back over the work you are doing. Lots of nuts and bolts and washers and no real way to identify which is which. I used a caliper to measure the bolts and nuts so i would no which was for what. The bags are not labeled but in some cases they only fit in certain parts. Seperate everything per the instructions and that helps a lot. i have an 2009 dodge ram 1500 and it fit nicely. Would like to put a light bar in at some point. Looks like a 20 inch light bar fits.If you find that the bolts that fits into the original block on the frame doesn't fit you probably have to clean out the threads in there. Mine had no OEM bolts so lots of rust build up in the hole. cleaned out with a wire bottle brush on my drill and put a dab of grease afterwards. Double check all the nuts and bolts when you think you are done. I found that i missed several and had to tighten up. There are videos on you tube for bull bars installs but none for this model. Many tubular bull bars use the same mounting brackets so look on youtube for an understanding as to how they go.

I was looking for a bulbar that was different than the usual rounded ones that I see everywhere. I took a chance on this one even though it didn't have much reviews or pictures to see how it looks I went ahead and got it. I'm glad I got this bull bar even though it wasn't that easy to put together.After laying everything out and looking at the picture of the reviewer that posted a few pics of his install,I was able to put it together easily. I saw that this company sells the bar in a combo that includes the light bar but, I instead bought this one so I could choose my own light bar and also because this includes the mesh that's supposed to be where the lightbar goes and I wanted to have the mesh in front of the lightbar. A 20" inch lightbar fits perfect and made it work with the mesh in front of it. I'm glad I chose this lightbar and hope it will last me a long time.

Was skeptical about this bull bar due to how cheap it was. It arrived within about two days. Well packaged and without any damage from transport. Item wAs well wrapped and free of damage inside box as well. Clear installation instructions included. Predrilled light mounts made installing lights a breeze. Bar looks good and has the feel of a quality piece. Welds are all clean, no skufgs and has a good weight to it. Overall very impressed with it.

I liked that it was sturdy. I liked the shape, and how it looked with other items on my truck. I even liked the finish of the paint job, until I realized how crappy it was painted. Less than a year after owning it, little dime sized spots of rust have bloomed all over the face and sides of the thing. I'll try to get some photos added on here soon. Very disappointing.

Product is great instructions are horrible.

Looks good and fits good.

Unique look. Not standard tube. Easy install. Seems sturdy enough.

Great product for the buck! Install was easy when done with two, but I did it myself, instructions can be a little much at first but there is a reason why; so read it.The only drawback I had was the wire getting through the fire wall. I had to snip it and re wire the harness back together for the switch, but otherwise easy part is the light

Very easy to install and great quality material
