Bull Bar on FX4 Level II?
Does anyone know if its possible to mount a Westin Bull bar on my '05 FX4 Level II? The accessory shop isn't too sure, with the skid plate there. I kinda wanna know before I order one. And, if anyone's got a pic of a black one on a black truck, that would be deadly! Thanks!

It's possible yet a complete waste on a truck set up for offroading. You building a street queen?

Nice Frieghtliner Columbia, what's it got under the hood?

dude, it weighs over 2700 lbs. rofl

If you find an 'old truck' that can support that much weight in the front, accomodate that driveline, and still counter balance in the rear to get that torque to the ground; you let me know!

It's like the ranger with the suercharged f150 lightning motor. Ain't worth a **** if you can't get the power to the ground..........but back on topic =]



If you're looking to add looks then by all means, get it on there! Since you have a LII, I'd stick to chrome to match the bumpers.

HAHA!! I know how it is man! I can outpull almost anything on the road with mine, she's a beautiful motor! Of course, she's spec'd right out, 550hp, 2050ft/lbs torque, just over 60lbs on the turbo. Mmmmm...Acert
