Yeah, haven't seen them in person. Pretty tough and industrial looking in the pic, which is good.

Those things are so heavy! What will it do to the front tires on a 1/2 ton? I thought about getting a Fab4 front bumper for my F350, but 1k is alot of beer!

I have been caught looking at dude's trucks/tires/lift... No one has a problem with it, except the guy who caught me sittin on his tailgate.... lol j/k

lol! sitting on his tailgate? Thats funny. Was his girlfriend sitting with you?!?!

The Ranch Hand bumpers look very square, and simple. I bet with some good factory bumper mount dimensions you could easily make your own if you have a welder. My buddy and I have talked about doing this for our trucks. This way you can recess light holes with pieces of large pipe. Place as many light mount tabs as you like. Basically depending on your garage, motivation, and Imagination you could come up with anything! I wonder....how many of you have attempted this? Any pictures?
