What do you call em?

Looking on the net for those huge metal bumpers that replace your stock front bumper with a metal one w/ a brush guard built in to it. Hope this is a good description. What is the proper name for em?

also boondocker. Just as good as road armor, a little less expensive, and a lot better looking than ranch hand

Ranch Hand's are deer killers. They'll stop 'almost' anything and still look like they did before... even if they are kinda ugly

I have placed an order with South Texas Outfitters...they won't be ready for pick up until the 2nd weekend in December. I will feel better when I finally get these bumpers on my truck and protect my investment as a secondary concern right behind protecting my girls.

You can also look at Arb, they make the Bull Bar bumpers & Sahara Bar bumpers. I like the Bull bar better.(white truck). These bumpers are airbag compatible, with replacable crumple zones between bumper and frame.

This is the Bull bar:




This is the Sahar Bar, $1250 delivered from www.samsoffroad.com
