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.

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
