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 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD and 3500 HD (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 trul y 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, dual-layer E-coat and 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.

Yes, the kit is compatible with both 2WD and 4WD versions. The 2WD model does not come with factory tow hooks, so the kit includes extra hardware to accommodate this difference.
The kit includes: 1 Aries front grill guard, 2 lower frame brackets, 2 upper brace brackets, 2 spacer plates, 2 × 7/16" × 1½" bolts, 4 × M12 × 1.75 × 40mm hex bolts, 12 × 7/16" × 1½" hex bolts, 12 × 7/16" lock nuts, and 28 × 7/16" USS washers. Extra hardware is supplied for 2WD models.
Yes, the factory tow hooks must be removed from the front section of the vehicle before installation begins. If you want to reuse the tow hooks, they can be reinstalled using the new M12 × 1.75mm hex bolts supplied in the kit, but the driver side and passenger side hooks must be switched.
Yes, trimming is required in two locations: first, a small section of the bumper cover must be trimmed where the frame bracket interferes with it, and second, a small section must be trimmed for bracket adjustment. The manual does not specify exact trimming dimensions.
Yes, factory tow hooks can be reused. When reinstalling them, replace the factory bolts under the frame and on the outside of the frame with the M12 × 1.75mm hex bolts supplied in the kit. The driver side and passenger side tow hooks must be switched from their original positions.
On some trucks, the factory holes from the frame to the tow hook may be off-spec. If this occurs, you will need to enlarge the holes just under the frame to allow proper fitment. The manual does not specify the enlargement dimensions or method.
1. Remove factory tow hooks. 2. Attach frame brackets to the vehicle. 3. Line up the three holes on the lower portion of the bar with the three holes in the frame brackets (inner edge), place spacer plates between frame bracket and grill guard, and attach using 7/16" bolts and nuts. 4. Hand-tighten initially to allow alignment adjustment. 5. Once aligned, tighten the three bolts supporting the bar and the bolts holding the frame brackets. 6. Install upper brace brackets by removing the factory bolt, placing the bracket, and reusing the factory bolt, plus adding a 7/16" bolt from the bracket to the upright plate of the grill guard. 7. Align the grill guard to the desired position and tighten all bolts.
The spacer plates are placed between the frame bracket and the grill guard when attaching the front bar. There are 2 spacer plates in the kit, one for each side.
After hand-tightening the three bolts supporting the bar to allow movement, position the grill guard to the desired alignment. Once satisfied with the alignment, tighten the three bolts supporting the bar and then tighten the bolts holding the frame brackets to the vehicle. Finally, tighten all remaining bolts.
The three bolts supporting the front bar should be hand-tightened initially to allow for alignment adjustment. Once the grill guard is aligned to the desired position, these bolts are then fully tightened.
Remove the factory bolt from the mounting area. Place the upper brace bracket into the area and reuse the factory bolt. Use a 7/16" bolt to connect the bracket to the upright plate of the grill guard. A small section of the bumper cover may need to be trimmed for bracket adjustment.
