If I get a 2019 I'll design my own front bumper.
When I saw Calmini at Overland Expo they wanted to build a Ranger with me. They have a 3.5 inch kit that uses Radflo coilovers instead of spacers. Not sure if I'd try to do something with them, or do a Skyjacker lift since I've used and promoted their suspensions for so long.
I'd like to find a 1983-1988 short bed regular cab Ranger and then use the suspension, drivetrain, bed cage and adapt the front bumper from TRS-2. Paint it like TRS-1 and make it a tribute to TRS-1 & TRS-2.
