Bambi lost and so did I!!!!!
 
So i got into a little fight with bambi's dad the other day and i did a little bit of damage to the front of the old dodge. Now im getting enough money from insurance to replace the bumper with a fab fours. But im running into the issue of my body lift. Has anyone modified the bumpers to fit. Even if its a different make, post some pics just so i can have an idea.

Thanks

P.S. It did about 5500 dollars damage but the biggest was the bumper

fab fours makes a bumper for body lifted trucks. that way you can run a winch and still have the stoutness rather than using the plates that come with the bodylift.

OMG that is the best i have ever seen. But no it was more like i hit him doing 75 mph and since i have a 6" suspension and 3" body he went right under the truck but he took out the bumper. It was a 8 point buck that weighted about 150-200 lbs. He was a fair size bambi!!!!

I called them and they had nothing for me. He told me that i had to cut and modify the brackets to make it work. Its not a big deal as i have access to a plasma cutter and a welder. And my buddys dad is a licenced welder and said he would do it, but id just like to see if anyone else has hacked a 3k bumper apart and what it looked like after.

boondock has a set. I called Anthony a couple days ago.

Ya but the only problem is im in canada and i get free shipping the bumper from a company up here. And i will have it tommorow instead of 2-6 weeks. Im just in need of a bumper soon as i have almost hit a few more deer as i work in a area were there are more deer than there are people who hunt them

So ya the local welding shop is gonna modify it for cheap. But the bumper came in today. I also got the optiona Light force 170 kit that they sell. Ill post some pics sunday with the bumper modified to fit the truck with the 3" body lift

DODGER BOMBER 10-31-2008 06:20 PM

Well i forgot to post some pics from the bumper mods and ill have to post them in a few days. I also got the lights on. The only thing i have not done so far is wire the turn lights in the bumper and will be doing that this week some time. Been really busy trying to get my house stuff done and work but ill try to post pics soon as ill also have my 40's on.
