Will the Westin Grille Guard for the 2000 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 Series fit the 1500 Series

Question:

I have a Westin Sportsman Grille Guard, I believe the mounting kit I have is for a 2500 series. I have a 1500 Series Suburban, can I just buy a different mounting kit, or do I need a different grille guard altogether? Thank you My Truck is a 2000 Suburban 1500 4-wheel drive.

Grille Guards are vehicle specific but every grill guard made by Westin for the 2000 Chevrolet Suburban is compatible with the 1500 Series. So if you have a 2500 series grille guard, you will be able to use it on your 1500 Series.

Westin only made three Sportsman Grille Guards for the 2000 Chevrolet Suburban, part # 40-0185 was made for both the 1500 and 2500 series and part # 45-0180 was made for the 1500 series. So as long as you have one of these grille guards, it will fit on your vehicle.

The Replacement Hardware Kit for the Westin Sportsman Grille Guard is part # 40-018PK. This hardware kit is what you need to mount the grill guard to your vehicle for both the Westin # 40-0185 and # 45-0180 grille guards.
