1500 Sport Front Bumper Replacement
So after about 2 years of pushing, bumping, and running into stuff the front bumper on my 2009 1500 SLT ram looks like it has seen much better days...
I wanted to switch out the plastic bumper with something like a ranch hand bumper or one that is 100% metal, Chrome, whatever. maybe one with a built in winch!
I have a few e-mails into the manufactures of these types of bumpers but just want to see if any of you guys have done this or thought about doing this? and what kind of labor is involved with it? Also if you have any good places to look for these bumpers online or people who will custom make them let me know! thanks...

Well I've never seen one with a winch "built in" but have seen many bumpers with the winch mount built in.
If you decide to go that route, check out my thread in the "Outdoors Section":

sport bumpers are fairly easy to disassemble. Just have a bunch of reinforcement brackets and supports. I f you wanna sell all your reinforcement brackets and stuff from your sport bumper let me know!
