Really happy with this on my ram 3500. The stainless looks great, I was worried it would be too much. Also the lifetime warranty only comes on that option. Install was straightforward with a little imagination. Yes the bumper on the ram need to be removed and it’s actually not hard, there no video on this install but I was able to piece together ones of removing the bumper, and other similar brands installs that helped. I would say Westin should note exactly where to put the strap support bracket because I got lucky doing the common sense way, but if you mistakenly put it on the wrong bolt, or the wrong part of the bracket, you would not know until you put it all back on and realized it won’t fit. They don’t tell you that your going to remove the square bolt, put it through the strap, then back onto the oem bracket then bolt it onto the bumper and it’s ready to be placed onto the truck. Main thing to look for is that the upper strap bracket and the lower main bracket are parallel above the other. If they don’t look aligned, you did it wrong. CAREFUL putting your bumper on by yourself, i gouged my chrome plastic headlight surround, would have been worse on a sport model with painted grill. My rating are as so; look-5, install-4 because the instructions while straightforward are a bit vague, bang for buck-4 because it was very expensive, almost new steel bumper expensive. But overall quality and my rating in general is a 5 because I truly love the look, quality, and I won’t be thinking about the price or install in a few weeks while in a few years I bet I’ll still love this thing! Heaven forbid I ever really need it for an animal I’ll be happy I have it and that it was a strong guard for our front end. A deer strike can ruin a road trip. Protect yourself.
We drive on back country roads all the time and wanted some extra protection in case a deer jumps in front of our truck. We love how this grille looks and feel much more protected while driving around.
Looks great on 4 Runner, changed the looks. Great customer service. I will order from them in the future. I hope not to test it's endurance but I'm glad to have it on in case I need it.
