that damage doesnt look TOO bad, but again sorry about your accident.

hey you may be able to do me a favor.... ive been lookin for a picture of a Ram with the front bumper off. if you find the bumper you need, assuming your replacing it yourself, can you take a picture of your truck between removing the damaged one and putting on the new one? that would be wonderful if you could. thanx and good luck finding that bumper!!

I was driving along this road that always gets water over it when it rains. Culvert under road washed out and the weight of my truck caused road to cave in when I went over that section. Got towed up and out but front bumper and bumper cover on my 97 1500 Sport got wrecked. I'm having alot of trouble finding new/USED bumper and cover for 97 Sport model. I think 98 is the same but 99 and up use different mounting setup. Anyone got any info on where I can get these peices? Tried EBAY but no Sport bumpers.
if/when you do find it you're going to pay a WHOLE lot more for that "Sport" lower cover. Most folks I know just take the regular textured standard lower cover and paint it. That's the only part of your setup that is "Sport" specific. The bar itself is just the standard painted bar and I believe the upper covers are the same.
Not sure where you are but you can get the parts you need from Keystone (www.keystone-auto.com)

So if I buy a chrome OEM or used bumper and an OEM grey/black lower cover, these are the same as the Sport and the only difference is painting them?

Thanks to all who replied and forwarded those web address'.

Oh, I will take a pic when I take the damaged bumper off and send it.

That blows. I used to have this 87 Lincoln LSC. What a beater but that thing hauled ***. Anyway, I hit this deer and she came all the way up to the window and cracked it but because I was breaking so hard, the front end dipped and she slid off. That deer got up, looked around, and I watched her walk off into a field. I figuered she would drop from busted legs or internal but she didn't! She walked the wood-line, grazed in the field for a bit. I couldn't believe it. Lincoln was not damaged that bad. The shape it was in when I got it, you probably could not even tell.

How much damage to your truck? Pic?
