I would like discourage any one thinking of buying a Ranch Hand product from doing business with them. My truck was at their shop in San Antonio for two hours and at the body shop for two weeks. I also had to take two days off work to deal with their sorry selves. I'd recommend Frontier Gear bumpers (located in Comfort, TX). The people at Frontier Gear are much more polite, professional and knowledgeable.

Just my thoughts, I have a buckstop front bumper. I was involved in an accident with a semi back this winter and it did $15,000 damage to the rest of the truck but only deformed the drivers side plate of the bumper about 3/16". I was impressed. I had my bumper rhino lined, no more rock chips.

x2 on both.

Plus I have had 2 ranchands in the past and the front end replacements didn't fit worth a ****.

You should check these cats out. I'm thinking about one of these or the Frontier or a Southwest Fabricators.

These are the ones that I hope to have done in the next 6 months--the other ones will be listed after this list is done.

Like anything that I've owned it has never been left stock.

Those are very nice as well!

How do they compare price wise to the Fab Fours?

I have seen a ranch hand wadded up by a deer in Montana. I want something that will deflect something. Ya it may be cheaper, but when you hit a deer or elk, it will cost more in the long run.

The rear fab fours bumper would look sweet on my rig. If only I had money to throw at it...

I really think the Frontier looks classy. That's one of the choices I have it narrowed down to. I have a Buckstop dealer that's right in my town though so I may just go that route and support the local guy.
