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 Nissan Frontier (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, 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 protec t the frame against scuffs and scratches.

The kit includes: 1 front bar, 2 bottom frame mounting brackets, 2 top mounting brackets, 2 5/16 × ¾ hex bolts, 2 5/16 hex nuts, 2 ¼ × ¾ screws, 6 7/16 × 1¼ hex bolts, 2 ¼ hex nuts, 12 7/16 flat washers, and 6 7/16 lock nuts. The installation also reuses 2 factory bolts from your vehicle.
The manual does not specify required tools. You will need standard hand tools to remove factory bolts and rivets, install hex bolts and nuts, and align the front bar. A rivet removal tool or drill may be needed to remove the two outer rivets in the bumper opening. Contact Curt technical support at 1-888-800-2743 for specific tool recommendations.
1. Remove the two factory bolts directly behind the bumper (they are parallel, one directly behind the other). 2. Position the bottom frame mounting brackets as shown in the illustration, aligning the bolt pattern with the factory bolt holes. 3. Reuse the factory bolts to attach the brackets. The brackets are positioned on the driver side as shown in the manual illustration.
1. Remove the two outer rivets located within the inner vent bumper opening. 2. Position the top mounting brackets as shown in the illustration, aligning the bolt pattern with the rivet holes. 3. Attach the brackets using 5/16 × ¾ hex bolts and 5/16 hex nuts. 4. Hand tighten the bolts initially, as you may need to move the brackets slightly to align the front bar.
1. Align the three holes on the lower portion of the front bar with the three holes on the frame mounting brackets (outer edge). 2. Fasten using 7/16 × 1¼ hex bolts, 7/16 hex nuts, and 7/16 flat washers. 3. Align the one hole on the top portion of the front bar with the hole on the top mounting brackets (outer edge). 4. Fasten using 3/8 × 1 button bolts, 3/8 hex nuts, and 3/8 flat washers. 5. Hand tighten all fasteners initially.
After attaching the front bar to the mounting brackets, align the left and right sides of the front bar to be equal distance from the bumper. Once you are satisfied with the alignment, tighten all fasteners securely.
No drilling is required. The installation uses existing factory bolt holes behind the bumper and existing rivet holes in the bumper opening. However, you must remove two outer rivets from the inner vent bumper opening to access the mounting points. The method for rivet removal (drill or cut) is not specified in the manual.
After installation, re-check all fasteners for tightness after one week of use. This is important because fasteners may loosen due to vibration and vehicle movement during normal driving.
The manual recommends re-checking all fasteners for tightness after one week of initial installation. A regular maintenance schedule beyond the first week is not specified in the manual. Contact Curt technical support at 1-888-800-2743 for long-term maintenance recommendations.
