ADD Bumpers

[Deleted member 17706]

I live in Northern Idaho and I'm looking at getting a ADD bumper for protection. There is way to much wildlife to be driving around without having protection! I'm really torn between the stealth fighter and the rancher. I like the stealth fighter the best with a 40 inch light bar instead of the 20 by 6 that comes standard. I just don't know about the protection because it seems like if I hit something on the side of my bumper whether the stealth or the stealth fighter that the animal is going to buckle from the impact of the vehicle and take out my headlight. Also I read that somebody took out a moose with a ADD bumper without it doing any damage to their vehicle? But I really don't see how that could possible unless it was small? That's why I'm leaning towards the rancher because I don't want to risk hitting something big like a moose and it coming back toward my grill and kicking up on my hood. I know some people don't care for the rancher but I'm doing the boatec fenders with 37 inch tires so I believe I would be one of the first people to do that combination. Either way I just wanted to hear from other people that have the rancher, stealth or stealth fighter..

That Rancher bumper is enormous. I wonder how much it weighs.

It was a baby moose but a moose none the less. Cant remember who it was and the picture did go missing but from what I remember it was a stealth bumper. Let me know if you have any questions for us! Feel free to give me a call or send a PM too.

Here is one we did with a receiver up front for a plow.

It weighs about 180lbs.

Here is a pic of the rancher which I really like, but that stealth fighter looks pretty sick with the amber lights on the bottom with the winch!
