n-fab also has a nice one, though a little pricey. What I like about theirs is that it bolts to the frame horns instead of the bumper.

Nelson,

(ADMIN NOTE: Guideline violation removed)

<!--
Here are 3 we've done:

ORI


N-Fab



Fabtech



And for those with sharp eyes, yes the third pic is a Truck Toyz installed Skyjacker lift. Don't hold it against me.

Hope this helps -->

Hey Overkill,

How hard are these to install? Do you sell them and install them? Are they powder coated or painted?


Thanks


Big Mick

Mick,

Easy install on the ORI and N-Fab. A little more time consuming on the Fabtech. The N-Fab simply bolts through your existing bumper bolt holes. With the ORI you must drill two 1/2" holes on the front and two 1/4" holes on the top of the bumper. For the Fabtech you must drill four holes through the bumper mounting plates just inside the tow hooks. All three are powder coated. Hope this helps.

Nothing wrong with Skyjacker, that's what i have...


I like the ORI and Fabtech ones. On the ORI prerunner where and how do those side bars mount that seem to go up to the top sides of the stock bumper. On the Fabtech prerunner, i'm not sure about that skidplate, does it attach to anything under there. I know they make one without a skidplate too, but this one looks different, i wish it didn't have that plate.

Nelson,

On the ORI there are some sleeves that extend from the bar to the bumper. The bolts go through the bumper from the inside and thread into the sleeves. On the Fabtech the skid plate does not mount to anything and just looks like a billboard for Fabtech. That is why this customer replaced it with his own plate and logo. They do produce a smaller bar without the skid plate which looks similar to the N-fab but for only 2 lights.

Hey I am looking for the pre-runner bar, kind of, It has the look, but is a lot bigger, like 3 inch, and has the bull bar, skid plate, and winch mounts included into one bumper replacement. Anybody have a clue of what I am talking about, I have found pictures of them in 4x4 catalogs but I cannot findout who makes them. It is for a 2000 F350 Crew Cab psd

Try off road tech .com. They have a very large bumper replacement. The caveat is that it's $1500. But it is very nice.
