Recommended Grille Guard and Bull Bar for 2001 Chevy Tahoe

Question:

The 40-0185 Do the brackets replace the tow hooks? What is the part number for just the brackets?

We have a number of grille guards available that include the mounting hardware but the brackets would be specific to what grille guard you have. If you are interested in the options please let me know and I'll be happy to help.

For your 2001 Chevy Tahoe I recommend taking a look at the Westin Sportsman Grille Guard which is available in either Black Powder Coated Steel # 40-0185 or Polished Stainless Steel # 45-0180. These are 1-piece grille guards that feature welded construction for strength and both models are bolt-on installation so you will not have to do any drilling into your Tahoe. For a bull bar I recommend checking out the Westin E-Series which is also available in either Black Powder Coated Steel # 31-5175 or Polished Stainless Steel # 31-5170. These bars have large 3" tubing, a skid plate, and also install by bolting on. The only thing you would potentially need is License Plate Relocation Kit for Westin Ultimate and E-Series Bull Bars # 32-0055 if your state requires you to have a visible front license plate.

For the Westin Sportsman Grille Guard # 40-0185 the tow hooks do need to be removed. For the brackets you would want Replacement Hardware Kit for Westin Sportsman Grille Guard # 40-018PK.
