Default Push bar

I'm looking to find a Police Style push bar for the front of my truck. I want a narrow type one, not one that the vertical members are at the very end of the grille.

I found this one but cant find a picture of it on a 2nd Gen:





Going from the look of the 3rd gen front end I think this is what I want. Anyone know of any similar products, or where else I can buy this thing?

if you find one with the sides that go in front of the headlights you should be able to take them off

Some are like that, some aren't. However, this Go Rhino bar is rubberized. Designed specifically for pushing.

I have no idea how many times in the past being able to push would have come in handy.

You don't want to push too hard with those. Although they hook into the frame on the
bottom they are typically only fastened to the top of the bumper, which is weaker and has
a lot of give. I've tagged people with my old brush guard/push bar and the bumper really
didn't like it. (nor did the guy that flipped me off :-)

I like the type you have with the brush guards on it. But for the price it costs to get that setup, I can have a custom tube bumper built by a guy I know. That, and I need a new bumper anyway.

However, the grille and brush guards are tempting.
