Bumper/Brush Guard for 1500HD

Wink · November 23, 2001

I'm interested in a Bumper/Brush Guard for our 2001 1500HD. I'd like the kind that bolts only to the frame. I don't see where any of the vendors list the 1500HD for their guards. The hood is the regular 1500 hood but is the frame on the 1500HD the same as the 1500?

Anybody have any ideas or should I just wait for the manufacturers to come out with new catalogs?

Thanks, Wink

the 1500HD is on a 2500 frame i think. there have been several threads about brush guards in the aftermarket forum

Wink, I think the 1500HD sits on the LD2500 frame. It should be the same as the dimensions as the standard 1/2 ton. I think the extra GVW is in the suspension and drivetrain. The 2500HD has a larger frame, and that is why the truck sits a couple of inches higher.

Anything that will fit a 2500 Silverado will fit your truck, because they use the same frame, suspension, etc. I've never looked at where the brush guards attach to the frame on the Silverados, so I can't say for sure if the stuff from a 1500 will work. I'd send the companies an e-mail to see what they say.
