I've been looking at Road Armor bumpers and I've been trying to find some others. I don't like the look of the Ranch Hand bumpers on the newer body style trucks. Anybody have any others installed on their trucks?

These are a few I came across while shopping for mine. I got the Ranch Hand from the RH wholesaler close by and I am very happy with it. Pics in the gallery.

Hopefully one of these other links can give you some other ideas besides the RH. Good luck.

 

I have a Frontier replacement on the front and a Ranch Hand on the back. Very happy with both.

 

check out buckstop... best in my opinion, but considered pricey.

Best IMO.

Thanks for the replies everyone. If anyone else has any others besides these please post them. I believe I have came to the conclusion that I am just gonna build my own. Since I have the ability and the facility I might as well save some money and do it myself.

 

You might want to consider the guage thickness when you build. If you read the sites you will notice most of the manufacturers dont use anything over 3/16". You might want to go with 1/4" if you live in high deer country or ever plan to four wheel it hard. Ive built several Road Armor style bumpers for Dodges and can say that the difference in weight is really worth it when it comes to a bad situation like smackin a deer.

I hit 2 deer with the last truck both doing atleast 65 and it didnt hurt it at all. The second ones head killed a marker light on the passenger side as her head came around. She made a large bloody V in the road though.

As a side note, insurance wont even pay you to replace the paint on your expensive bumper if a hoof scrapes any off even though you just saved them a butt load of money. Them suckers always win. PM me if you need any help.

 

Somebody say Road Armor?

I liked my Buckstop well enough on my '99 to get one for my '04

 

I like the pipe bumpers. The others are just to "flashy","pimped" to me.

I saw that picture and thought...wow, I saw that same set up at Skippers in CdA about a month ago, then I saw that you have Idaho plates and are from Post Falls. Its funny Because I stopped and took a picture of your truck because I LOVE that front end!

 

Thanks, PM sent.

 

Road Armor, eh?
