Yep that might be a good idea for me to try. Sad part is I bought this truck brand shiny new in October and it has 22K on it now. I could probably get a replacement from Dodge but it would do the same most likely. Good thing we don't salt the roads here or it would be toast.
Thanks

Stick it to em for a new bumper and don't mount it, just put it up on E-bay and get some money for it. Then you can buy a nice replacement type. The stock bumpers on all these 2nd and 3rd generation trucks are nothin more than doubled over tin foil.

Yep you're right; they are just about that. The back bumper is a nice design I wish it was made a little beefier and had a better chrome job.

I learned the lesson to late. Took me 3 deer to finally figure out that I would have saved money if I would have just bought my Ranch Hand before I hit the first one. The cost of that repair would have paid for the new bumper and prevented the damage, then I paid two more times after that. Now I got the bumper and I can't get a deer to step out there. I wanna see what it would do and they won't do it. Pisses me off.
