You should honestly get a local welder to weld up a complete new bumper, a decent grille guard for a Ranger can be up to $600...

I found mine in the J/Y for $25 and the light wre $20. Not saying you will get lucky and just find one as easy as I did or as cheap. But a front guard with fog lights would definatly make it better, and could help save your front if something wants to jump out in front of you while driving.

hmm not sure what to do....
I have a welder :icon_welder: but I need money to have the electrical outlet put in so I can use it. I want to make some bumpers myself with a built on brush guard up front, some tow hooks, and spots for lights too. And for the back probably a receiver, tow hooks, and back up lights.

I always like those bumper that wrap around behind the fenders with tubes and the rest is just steel plate in the rear...anyone build something like this?

kinda like this but not all tubing

not that my opinion matters much, but please dont over do it on the bumpers and lights etc.

it looks super clean in the stockish theme, maybe a nice low key rear bumper and a sort of pre-runner light bar on the front and it would look good

where are you located?
