Default Jeep brush gaurd

Does anyone have a picture of the brackets that bolt this brush gaurd to a jeep? I only paid 30 for it but the guy didn't have the brackets, so was looking for a picture and would really like the dimensions so I can have some made up. Thanks for the help!

I just went out and looked it over, there's no stamping on it, like no part numbers or anything on it...

Just have someone hold it on the front of the jeep and draw up your own brackets.

If thats the one i use to have, it goes to where the stock recovery hook brackets go. Iirc you'll need the recovery hook brackets and those go onto them.

Andrew: that's what I did this afternoon was a little mock up.

And so your saying the factory tow hook brackets should be the same? If I find those brackets, then I'll be able to mount the brush guard to them?
