I don't remember what make they are, but Joey (joeyd61) has some awesome bumpers, both front and rear, probably the nicest ones I've seen, IMHO. They are a lot like the one in that pic you posted Phil, just the bumper, no grill guard. Hopefully he'll see this and chime in.

 

I think Joey's were FabFours? IIRC

 

joeys are iron bulls. been emailing him a little. @ Jim ..LOL. haha im trying. i have so many wants right now. i just got excited when i saw that cheap 300 rear bumper. wanted to see if anyone knew where to get a front one for that price.

I like the one without the tubing. just have to do some searchin.

there are some cheaper ones on eBay, like the Road Armor style, for around $650

 

Any idea how much that thing weighs?

 

Not exactly, but guessing 250 lbs? Its literally 2x as heavy as my tube and plate ranchhand (looked like Bulla's) was. The main structure is 3x5 tubing and 3/16" plate!

 

My ranch hand weighs in at 262! What did u hit to fold up ur previous bumper?

 

You will get a kick out of that story! Really could of been worse. But it's up to Jason to share!!

 

Phil,
I went by the place that has the Top Gun Bumpers, here are couple of pics...Like I said in the e-mail..If you want them and work it out with Mark, I can bring them to RRE....

 

pics are side by side?????

 

Maybe it is heavier than 250????

Well, I went downstairs and cranked up the truck EARLY one morning to warm it up. While I was upstairs getting the kids ready, etc - I hear the truck get quieter. Since it has a straight pipe, 1200 rpm's and EBPV closed tends to make a racket... Anyway, I walk over to the window with that sick feeling in my stomach and look at where it was. I then look down the hill where it ended up. It hit a small tree just outside the passenger frame horn. The tube part of the Ranchhand crushed like a beer can and tore open allowing the bars to hit the passenger fender. Overall, ALOT less damage than if the factory bumper was there - but the bumper was a complete loss and I also needed a new fender, header panel, grill and headlight(s).

Thats my story anyway!!
