For the conqueror in every truck, Jeep or SUV owner, the ARIES grille guard offers the tough, trail-ready look you demand. It begins with a one-piece frame of 1/4" thick welded plates and 1-1/2" mandrel-bent tubing for a solid build. Each one is made with a vehicle-specific design for a better fit, easier install and more secure mounting. The side brush guards are custom-bent to contour to the profile of your vehicle, while the mounting brackets are positioned for a no-drill application. This means pre-existing factory holes are used to ensure optimum fitment and less vibration. This particular custom grille guard fits specific years of the Ford F150 and Lincoln Mark LT (see application info to verify). The ARIES grille guard also makes it easy to customize the look of your vehicle. Not only does the crossbar have two pre-drilled holes for mounting aftermarket LED lights, but many of our grille guards are also available in two finish options -- polished stainless steel or semi-gloss black steel. The stainless steel grille guard is made with 304 stainless, being high in nickel content and truly resistant to rust and corrosion. This option comes with a mirror-like polished finish for a definitive shine. The semi-gloss black grille guard is made with high-strength carbon steel for added strength. It features a tough black powder coat finish to protect against rust, scratches and the elements. All ARIES grille guards also come with rubber stripping along the risers to protect the frame against scuffs and scratches.

For 4WD: (1) Remove tow hooks by removing the front bolt and loosening the rear bolt; place frame mount brackets on the underside of the frame, followed by tow hooks; replace factory bolts and hand tighten. (2) Line up the 3 holes on the lower portion of the front bar with the 3 holes on the inside of each frame mount bracket and attach using 7/16 x 1½ hex bolts, 7/16 USS flat washers, and 7/16 hex lock nuts for each side; hand tighten. (3) Remove two factory nuts from behind the bumper; place vertical support plate over holes and reinstall factory nuts (leave loose); attach upper bracket arm over bumper to lower bracket; connect support arm to vertical wing with M10 x 30 bolt, flat washer and lock nut. Finally, tighten all hardware securely.
For 2WD: (1) Temporarily remove the factory plastic spoiler; place one nut plate through the front of the vehicle's frame rail and align holes to the two matching holes in the frame rail; attach one frame mount bracket to the underside of the frame rail and secure to the nut plate using two 7/16 x 1½ bolts and two 7/16 USS flat washers; hand tighten; repeat for the passenger side; position the spoiler and carefully mark and cut slots to fit around the frame mount brackets and front bar uprights; reattach the spoiler.
