I was wondering if anyone has or knows where i can get plans to make a brush guard i have plenty of metals and welding equipment at my disposal but i don't know where to start my jeep is a 2001 Cherokee sport with the towing package (has front hooks). I would be thankful for any guidance you guys can offer.

Here are a couple of photos of my brushguard, taken before I installed it on my XJ, to maybe give you an idea.
Maybe if you measure the bolt-hole to bolt-hole measurements from your towhook brackets, you can extrapolate the rest.
HTH!

their used to be PLANS for an ARB style bumper on NAXJA before it crashed like a year ago. so if anyone saved that link, not very likely, that would be awesome.

How thick are those plates? I'm thinking about just making them myself. Also where do they mount to?
