Anyone know if Ranchhand has bumpers for the 03s yet? Or any other bumpers, that aren't all "pretty" like reunel or road armor.

 

How do you mean - &quot;pretty&quot;? I've been looking into bumpers in anticipation of upcoming truck purchase. Is there anything wrong with the Reunel or Road Armor units structurally? Or are you just looking for something less expensive?<br>Chris

 

I don't think there is anything wrong structurally, its just a looks thing for me. They're too rounded, and I prefer something alot more &quot;manly&quot; looking. I'm sure Reunel is a nice bumper, if you wanna pay up and over 1k for a front bumper and 800 for a rear bumper with 2 Piaa lights. I just want something to protect the truck..not look like a lil city boy riding around in Daddys truck( and around here there is enough of em )

 

Is this what your looking for<br><br>http://www.dodge-diesel.org/yabbse/i...d=6936;start=0

 

Haha that new one looks ugly as fock. Think they added enough useless tubing up front? not to mention it doesn't extend out far enough to serve any real use, as in protecting you from actually hitting something like a tree, or another truck

 

You did say you wanted something that was not all pretty

 

RanchHand is supposed to have their 03 bumpers out for the HD any day now. The Baja bumper is looking tempting...<br>

 

Well, by not wanting something pretty, I just want a simple bumper that serves a purpose. To keep trees or small cars from going through the radiator. I prefer the Ranchhand bumpers since they are simple, yet very strong. They aren't all rounded and blended in like the Reunel bumpers are. And as far as the Road Armor, thats just sick to see something like that on a truck. Bet all that tubing will fold nicely into the hood if you slid into a tree....

Road armor also makes this one.

 

Still to &quot;pretty&quot;. It doesn't stick out from the front end enough for me, plus it hangs down real low....If Ranch Hand doesn't make one, I'll just fab my own....

 

I got an E-mail from Ranchhand today. They say they are about 3 weeks out with bumpers for our '03s. Kyle

 

Not sure why I called it &quot;Baja&quot;, except that it looks like other called Baja.<br>It's actually the Bullnose which I was speaking of.<br>http://www.ranchhand.com/frontbumperbullnose.htm<br><br>Less &quot;rancher&quot; looking than the original style, and you can still get the recevier hitch on the front.

 

Ahh yes the Bullnose. I used to like it till they ruined it with that stupid looking hoop on it now :

Actually....it's $800 not including the PIAA lights. But then again, it'll haul 15,000 lbs. :
