Ranch Hand Bumper

Ive been looking at bumpers and I found a used ranch hand bumper with the full grille guard and everything for $200. Seems unreal. Anyone have any thoughts?

I would have already bought it, repainted, and installed it, if it is in any kind of half decent condition, the best I can get a new one here for is about 1100 on ranch hands.

Is this a bumper that fits our rigs, or other rigs? Need to make sure what it fits will pull in the resale money. No problem reselling if its a superduty bumper, but certain years of certain other rigs it may be harder to resell.

Grab it!Those sell for over 800 if you look around online.
There are allot of guys who like those big things on the front of there trucks-you could easily resell it.
Make him a cash offer for the bumper,and the headache rack.

heck yeah buy it, especially if its a real Ranch Hand, I looked for a used one but couldnt find one, I wouldnt even paint it if I were you, those things are powder-coated. Either put it on your truck or resell it.

The guys said it looks "rhino lined" to the untrained eye powder coat could look like that
