Custom front bumpers?

Postby bmoeller » Fri Feb 18, 2011 9:42 pm

Was curious if anyone would be interested in custom front bumpers (like a Ranch Hand style) for our 1st gen trucks? Have a lead on one for my '92. If I can talk him down on price, I was wondering if it might be worth setting up a group buy on them (if he's willing to do it).

Any thoughts?

I might be able to. That is a customers truck, of the guy that built the bumper I believe. I'll see if he'll pass the info along at all. I'll be out of town for a while, but I'll do what I can. No 'net access on the road.

He wants $1000 for the one pictured. They build them to order. Been on the road and haven't had a chance to talk to him lately. They are down in NM.

I've been looking for a bumper JUST like the one shown. Too bad the wife is swapping jobs right now, so we're living on my shoeing and truck driving for a while. Yup, bologna and ramen noodles for the next couple months, lol.

Ya, I'm thinking about building one, for what they cost. Make it look more like those big Herd bumpers on big trucks. :D

Just made this sucker, its the 4th bumper ive made for the front of my truck, first three netted a bumper that i didn't like the look of (im supre picky about looks) even this bumper dosent apeal to me that much, think ill throw some LED fogs in it, box the inside and turn it into a multi purpose chain holder/ cooler :)
