ranch hand style bumpers

anyone know where i could get some ranch hand style heavy duty bumpers for a 73-87 crew cab? i know of this off road place around here that specializes in these chevys and they make a tubular bumper but to me it looks more like a beefed up brush guard

Re: ranch hand style bumpers

I know that they made them at one time. I remember a guy that was finishing college when I started and he had front and rear bumpers on a '79 K20.

Re: ranch hand style bumpers

Personally I've never cared for Ranch hand's aesthetics, and I found another option: http://www.buckstop.biz/chevy-gmc_80s.html

Re: ranch hand style bumpers

i saw those ones the other day, i like that outback one they have, really beefy looking, but the one thing i like about the ranch hands is the diamond plate and how beefy they are, but im sure those bucksop ones are really stout to

Re: ranch hand style bumpers

Had mine custom built by Keven Kirkegaard at WFO Concepts out in Auburn, CA. Front is a "push-bar" style, but could easily have brush guard bars added. Rear is full-on custom & VERY heavy-duty!!!

Nice thing is that they have all the dimensions in their Solid Works program so they could reproduce them at will.

Also added some pics of the spare tire carrier he built for me as well.

Re: ranch hand style bumpers

Found a lot of Ranch Hand bumpers at Built For Trucks. These days you can get decent options for cheap Ranch Hand prices http://www.builtfortrucks.com/brands/Ranch-Hand.html . I like the custom pics the other guy posted. You probably can modify some of the custom bumpers from the name brands too.
