Default Need Brush Guard Part Sizes

For the infinite hassle that Kachina Hummer has put me through, they provided me with a free brush guard. The trouble is it was only free if I put it in myself, with no parts kit. LOL

So I was hoping someone knew what bolt sizes, washers, etc, are needed for the install. Yeah, I could just eye ball it and hit Lowes/Home Depot, but I would feel better knowing I used the same sized/quality gear that is officially used. I tried a few internet searches but I didn't have much luck.

While I don't recall the exact sizes here I believe the bolts fastening it to the stock mounting location was in the 2-2.5" category on my SMA brushguard. Granted, it also attaches to the hood hinge location with a set of 1-1.5" bolts. Anyway, moving on. The stock location only required 4 washers all together. Now, if you need to attach it to the hood hinge bolts as well, you will need an additional two washer and a couple of .75" (I think) spacers.
If you pop the lower grille trim off you should see the 4 mounting holes for the BG. Try some old bolts you've gotlaying around and once you get a fit, take it with you and go get some stainless steel ones :-)

As far as getting the actual mounting kit ... if it's the GM/OEM, why not contact the dealer? They may be able to order a kit if it's actually possible. If not, check ebay and see if you have any luck!

Easiest way...remove 1 of each bolt go to hardware store match them (don't worry you can take the H nothing will fall off) ZYNE has the right lengths above get a dozen washers and have at it... DO NOT stress the grill bolts.. space it with the washers...did mine last month

BigGuy, there are no bolts to be removed bro .. the mounting holes are empty. And definitely don't strain those hood hinge bolts. Either make a spacer of some steel tubing or pack up with washers, either way works though the washers will probably be a better choice!
