SteelCraft® - 3" Black Bull Bar with Skid Plate

The only issue with this item is it does not fit a Nissan 2016 SV 4x4 properly. You can mount it to the front with very little effort (but use 2 people). However, in the highest adjust position it hang too low and cuts about 2-3 inches into your ground clearance. The bar needs about 4-6 inches in the bottom curvature to sit properly.

When I ordered this bar, I was thinking to myself why pay extra? These kinds of things are not real bull bars, so why pay more if they all work the same? You're kidding yourself if you think any of these "bull bars" can actually protect the front of your vehicle from anything more than a shopping cart, regardless of brand. I bought it for a mounting point for KC lights. I feel I was mostly right with going the cheap route. Everything fit together well, although the brackets are labeled incorrectly. P should be passenger and D should be driver, but that wasn't the case. Easy enough to figure out though, it all fits one way and the instructions show how it's supposed to look anyway. Built well, but it did arrive slightly damaged. There is a small gash in the middle bar, away from the sides of the box so it didn't happen during shipping, especially since the packaging wasn't damaged. This wasn't a big deal to me though considering the price I paid, certainly spent less on a dab of touch up paint than what shipping it back probably would've costed. My KC Apollo pros were tricky to install, but no more so than any other bar. Would've been easier if I could hold the nuts in my sockets magnetically. I installed the bar by myself in less than 30 minutes. If you're by yourself and your truck isn't tall, you can lay a towel down and lay the bar face down and get the first two bolts in easy that way. Once the first two are in, you can lift the front and install the other two. Adjusting by myself was a pain, but doable. All in all I'm happy with my purchase and glad I went cheap. I just don't see the value in paying extra for the other brands unless you just have to have a skid plate with a brand name on it. I think it looks good on my 2015 Frontier.

Looks great and serves a purpose. My Nissan Frontier would be bumperless without it! Installation went just as described. It took about an hour total.

Looks good on my truck.

Good quality easy install, except brackets were stamped d and p, I thought driver/passenger. Don't know if stamped wrong or I don't know the code, because p went on drivers side and d on passenger side. Shipping was good, product arrived ahead of projected delivery.
