grille guard for 86

[knockonwood77]

Does anyone know a source for a grille guard for a 1986 ford bronco? LMC truck has a grille guard, but the mounts bolt externally to the bumper, I am looking for one that bolts to the frame... Also, anyone know what thread the bolts for the spare tire carrier are? I have the spare carrier, but the previous owner filled the mounting holes with bondo, and I would like to clean them out with a tap to mount the spare carrier...

Check out the following for frame mount brush guards and as for the hole size I'm not sure.

all are winch mounts or pre runners that attach to the frame with little or no mods to the horns

sorry that's ironbullbumpers.com and they actually have one on ebay for $1299 as of now if you were interested in that particular style. good luck

are you sure the rear tire mount was filled? not all trucks had one on the outside.

not sure if it helps you or not but the ones that lmc sells are frame mounted. they bolt through the bumper to the fram so that the bolts that hold on the grille gard also hold on the bumper. i've got the same set up on my 86.
