Anyone have this brush guard?...
 
Trying to find anyone that knows anything about this full front brush guard. Is it solid if you grab the top and pull? Does it bounce around? Just trying to find out everything about it.

Also, anyone know of a combination full brush guard with a bull bar like the one pictured below? that would be a cool combination.

I've never seen one like that in real life, it's a bit over the top IMO. Looks like it needs to be on a Land Rover on the Kalahari Plain in Africa. As for the bull bars, with most of them you have to remove the tow loops forever. That's not something I want to do.

I read that the top of the brush guard attached via clips to the hood handles for support. I think they are (hood handles) included in the cost of the guard. But, I still could see it being bouncy. Just wanted to get some opinions on it.

Could just be the picture but looks like the false grill louver is already being bent in under the weight of the brushguard. I haven't personally seen that style brushguard on an H3. I took a very similiar one off one of my H1s. Didn't care for it.

It has to bounce if it's mounted to the truck's frame. I've got the SMA guard and the top of it is visable from the driver's seat. When I hit pot holes or torque the truck's frame hard diagonally, I can see slight movement of the bar in relation to the hood. This is normal, the body is mounted to the frame rails with rubber bushings so there will always be movement between them.

that brush guard is only as strong as its weakest link and from that picture it looks like those hinges by the off road lights , they look pretty flimsy to me a little tap and they would just buckle.
