Front Bumper from Tough Country

[treypal]

I'm from Texas.
1. Tough country bumpers are super heavy. Well built but heavy
2. The reason everyone runs light bumpers with big skid plates is to keep the front end as light as possible. It's the same reason the raptor has a fiberglass hood and fenders. If you don't plan on offloading your truck then more power to ya. But your shocks are valved specifically for the weight of the truck. It's not like stock shocks that ride like shit heavy bumper or not. You will notice a big difference in handling and ride quality with a big heavy bumper. And not for the better.

Ps my last truck was a 1 ton cummins with a big bumper. I know how handy they can be. But they are not meant for the raptor. Maybe tough country can make an aluminum one.

Next time I want to enter the script for the next Death Race movie and cover my entire truck in cast iron

Well???? The ends look o.k. kinda like a road aurmor bumper which are very PRICEY. I am not a fan of the vertical flat hoops. Ranch hand looking. The center for me would not need the winch hole or the slots for whatever. The center added support bars tieing the hooop to the center are akward looking to me as well. Now IT LOOKS STOUT don't get me wrong but its not my cup of tea. It will damn sure kill some wild life! HAhaha.

Nothing is wrong with it, Hell I had my honeymoon down there!

If you heard sarcasm, I didn't mean it to be like that.

Meh. Not feeling it.

Probably the best bumper for hiding a winch behind though.
