Default Ranch Hand rear bumper

I am needing to replace my rear bumper due to a minor accident and was contemplating a Ranch Hand or similar type bumper instead of the factory bumper. However, my wife brought up a good point about whether or not the Ranch Hand only on the rear, not the front, would look weird.

I was wondering if any of you guys have this type of setup and if you have any pictures that would show the whole truck to see what it looks like with a factory front bumper and Ranch Hand rear bumper.

Will this be a temporary situation? (getting a replacement bumper for the front "someday"?) Then no biggie...

I built a bumper for the rear only - for now:




Looks dumb/weird?

Probably won't replace the front bumper anytime soon.

I agree, nice work!

Thanks guys, I posted the build thread over in the Custom Fabrication Department section. I just wanted to see if it was possible NOT to spend $1500-2500 on a bumper And to encourage anyone else who ever wondered if they could too.

Do it! (you know you want to... )
