hey man does anyone have a custom bumper on their trucks
hey, long story short... i had to get pulled out of a hole and ididnt have tow hooks. So i wrapped around the bumper with a winch and destroyed it. so now im looking to either buy a new bumper or try something and weld one up but being that the rams have a rounded nose welding up a straight bumper would look stupid and to really follow the lines of the bumper will be a tough cut and weld with a thick gauged steel or diamond plate. Please post pictures and ideas of what i should do .. thanks - John

I've heard enough bad about Alien Patrol I'd probably stay away from them. There are a few threads on it over at PS and threads just seem to pop up everywhere about it. With as much money as the bumpers cost I wouldn't risk that much money I'd just go with a proven brand.

I have another 01 ram with a Ranch hand bumper.... its the toughest thing on the truck, it is a little heavy but its worth it. It is 1/2" steel where it attaches at the frame and 1/4" most other places, it also has a mount for a winch so next time you wont need pulled out lol.... I think it cost around $850.00 but its definately worth the money...
