Thanks for the support guys! I was hoping the insurance would pay.. but that is not the case I'd like to take a stab at doing a custom fab bumper.. but I don't have the time... ranch hand would be sweet.. but don't have that kind of cash for a bumper yet... but I was wondering what kind of bumper you have

Trust me, being in a Dodge is NOT a good bragging point for a front end collision. It's almost embarrassing how little of an impact will totally screw up these trucks.

That was an impact on a power pole at 30 MPH.

Yes, that's my truck. That was it's second, front end impact. I did that one, and my Grandfather did one about 5 years prior, his was a head on collision with an Izuzu. The little car was totaled, and the truck came close.


Sorry for the thread jack iwhit.
