Ive been looking for a replacement bumper for my truck eversince i got it about a year ago, but i really dont want to spend a $1000 or more on a front replacement bumper.

So I was wondering if there was anybody out there willing to build me one for less than the cost of a ranch hand?

 

Ill take one too...

 

I wanna get on that list...

Try salvage yards, drive to Laredo and pick one up cheap...

 

Uh, Laredo is about 47 hours from me....

Shoulda moved to South Texas when I had the chance....

 

I looked long and hard when my Roughneck by the Perry Co. was dinged, I found that actually finding a bumper was nearly as hard as finding a deal on one. the knock offs that I have seen are superior to ranch hand....I have a ranch hand on it now and am dissappointed compared to the roughneck, as for finding a deal ebay is about it, they are worth 800-1000 and that is what the sell for...kinda sux till ya smoke a deer at 40 and the thing flys away like it was shot from a cannon and the only evidence is a bloody turd on the mirror...........try that with that marshmellow sport bumper

 

I have been looking the last few days for this very thing. I love the way they look and like the protection also. I want an ARB bull bumper, with the 12K Mile Marker winch behind it. I need to find the bag of money first though. Of course, if I do the front, I have to do the back too. About 2500 for everything. Now, where was that bag of money

Just how far north do you live?

I know Rick has said he sees them for $4-500 in Laredo...

 

www.roadarmor.com might be something on here in your price range.

 

i built my bumper for the price of lunch at wendy's for my neighbor who did the welding

he got all the steel from the scrap pile at his work and we fabbed it up in 4 hours.

pics are in my gallery

 

Man, $1000 is too high for a replacment. Maybe in Texas you can get them cheaper, but I wouldn't pay that for one. You should be able to get one for 500 or so. I agree, ranchhand is highly overrated. There are many better bumpers made for less. Look at the bumper in my gallery, it is made in Ballinger TX.I like the ones made from channel iron as opposed to the ones out of the thin pipe. My rear wraparound is not in the pics but it is made by www.southwestfabricators.com they make good stuff.

 

Way North my friend...yeah i thought about having Rick ship me a front and rear bumper

 

Is that so far north everybody rides ski-doo's in the winter more then driving their cars?

 

Hey guys,

I am newbie to the diesel game but not so much the offroad/Fab thing and I will be doing a new bumper on my 02 here very soon. If you wanna get some pics when it's finished up just send me a message and I will be sure to get you some. We are just a couple wheelers and racers and are just now gettin started doing the work for others that have liked our work. (not ghetto fab).

I should have pics available within a few weeks.
