is there really any difference in the two? if i was to push oh lets say a car would a bull bar bend or is it pretty stout? i pushed a crate that was 4'x25' with my truck uphill on gravel and it bent the crap out of it, granted i bought my truck with it already on there, you can tell that it's not for a ram, the side pieces that i have taken off didn't cover the whole headlight just part of it up to the turn signal, someone told me after i bought the truck that it was probably for a dakota, but it was already bent up and i am wanting to get something else.
just looks really...niether will provide much protection at all...i would say the brush bar since it mounts in multiple places would provide more than say the bull bar in my sig pic...
brush guards will flex and bend back also, most go under the bumper and have brackets that go up to the frame and that is the only place that they are attached. if you want to do some pushing then do what iwhitne said and get a bumper replacement like a ranch hand or roadarmor bumper.

i guess i was wrong but i would have sworn that it was for a different truck just did not look right but thats the one i have purpl and i don't like it, tooo flimsy. thanks though i think i'll have to find me a man sized bumper
