Good and strong grill guard.

I love my grill guard. Now I am thinking I may want to attach some lights to it.

Great quality, finish is holding up excellent despite abuse. Another bit of information to note: if you have the chrome mesh grill (Denali style) it will require modification and not install per the instructions.



by:

This has been a great grille guard! Power coat looks new and this has been a "better than expected" item.

We chose this particular guard because we like the design over other brands for the Tahoe application. This is a 2020 Tahoe Premier RST. Grill guards are popular here in rural Texas even on cars and SUVS because they are known to at least sometimes help minimize vehicle damage during highway impacts. Turkey buzzards, hawks, feral pigs and deer are a constant presence on our rural public roads. We like the way it fits and the tubing is even heavier than the Ranch Hand on our farm trucks. We are very happy with this product.

It mounted very easy specifically to my truck. I have not had a use for it yet, which is good, but I've referred several individuals to E trailer that liked it.

This the review I posted on TacomaWorld about the grill: “I had purchased a HD Steelcraft grille guard, via Carid, for my 2017 Tacoma, but it was not received in acceptable condition (from manufacturing and shipping). After being refunded I purchased a HDX Westin, grille guard, via etrailer. First, I have to say the Westin was much more difficult in install; luckily I had a buddy with more experience on such projects, more patients and the right tools. The instructions covered several years of Tacomas and were poorly written and illustrated. With that said the packaging from Westin was far superior than that of Steelcraft’s. Westin had every part covered by cardboard cut to fit. Under the cardboard the grille guard had been wrapped in foam. The likelihood of the grille being damaged was very unlikely. On the other hand the Steelcraft only had foam and bubble wrap around it with a thin leather like covering around it all on the outside. Before even unpacking the Steelcraft it could be seen were the corners of the up rights had cut through the wrapping. As mentioned the quality of the grille was poor. There were places where it had not been powder coated, the powder coating on the punch out was sloppy and one of the up rights appeared to have been damaged before it had even been wrapped. The Westin was made of thicker and wider steel. Both grilles were one piece units. The Steelcraft bolted to the frame using vertical bolts, which seemed to me could be sheared off on impact, while the Westin grille bolted on horizontally. Steelcraft looked good the way the upper part of the guard turned inward to follow the upper part of the grille, and the Westin upper part turn outward following the angle of the lower part of the grille. The Westin offered more protection. If you were to hit something the wider spread of the Westin uprights seem like they would protect more. The uprights on the Steelcraft were just powder coated medal, but the uprights on the Westin had a nice rubber strip over them, well suited for pushing another vehicle. The Westin cost more, but worth it. Just make sure you’re very patient and having a pass though socket is a great help since there is very limited room to work under the bumper on the upper bolts. And Steelcraft’s warranty is two years while Westin’s is three years.”

I ordered this grille guard, and it arrived by freight carrier on time. Nice build quality! However it would not fit my particular model of truck. I only figured this out after I took the front of my truck apart. I contacted etrailer for the return and with great difficulty I had to drag the box into my basement to dry out because it rained after I set the box outside thinking I was going to throw it away, I repacked the grille guard, bought straps to secure the thing to the pallet, bought two rolls of packaging tape to repair the box I opened with a razor knife, had to hunt around town for a suitable pallet as the original freight carrier took the pallet with him, enlisted the help of a friend to help me repackage the grille guard, then waited a whole afternoon for the freight carrier to show up for the return because dispatch didn’t call with an estimated arrival time like the original freight carrier did. Now mind you, I’m a 70 year old disabled veteran who’s not supposed to lift more than a jug of milk, but the task at hand was completed. But the build quality of the grille guard was excellent. I would love to add a photo of the completed installation, but I had to send the grille guard back. I do have a photo of it sitting in my garage. Fortunately for me, I have a friends that are willing to help me when I get into a pickle. I have to mention though, that the customer service was excellent, and William deserves to have someone buy him a beer for all of his hard work bird dogging this whole evolution. Thanks William!

  • Recommended Grille Guard for a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 w/a Front Camera
    Yes, that is correct Dennis. Any cameras or sensors behind the Westin HDX Grille Guard with Punch Plate item # W32AQ will be blocked when it's installed on a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. If you have the camera located in the center of the grille, I recommend using the Westin HDX Grille Guard with Punch Plate item # W98RV instead. It's got a cutout in the middle as shown on the picture below. What are you wanting to add a grille guard for?

  • Recommended Westin HDX Grille Guard w/ Sensor Relocation Kit for a 2026 Chevy Silverado 3500
    Hey Gerald, congrats on the new truck. I've got a solution but the Westin item # W92AQ is going to block everything and doesn't make relocating the sensors easy on your 2026 Chevy Silverado 3500.

This grille guard is specifically designed to allow you to move your sensors into the grille guard's support...

  • Will Westin HDX Grille Guard Fit 2023 Silverado 2500 With EcoHitch Front Hitch
    It is possible the # W98RV will fit with the # EH57FR on your 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500 but it is going to be incredibly close. Looking at pictures of this grille guard mounted on a Silverado on the Westin site it appears as though the lower crossbar will be in the way of the receiver opening. I'm also sorry to say we have not had a report of someone successfully installing both of these together. You're welcome to try it and find out but I'm fairly certain the receiver will be blocked....

  • How Much Does the Westin HDX Grille Guard for a 2020 Chevy Silverado 3500 Weigh?
    The Westin HDX Grille Guard with Punch Plate item # W98RV weighs 139 lbs. You will have to remove your tow hooks as the brackets for the grille guard attach in the same place. Like all the grille guards available for your Silverado it will interfere with your front cameras and any sensors above the bumper.
