2019 Ford Ranger Bull Bar, Grill Guard, and Winch Bumper

[sgtsandman]

I built my grill guard using 1" x 1.5" rectangular box and expanded metal. I hit a 160 lb buck @ 65 mph and there was no damage to my guard, the stock bumper got slightly bent though. Here's a couple pictures of it. I built it around the push bumper that was already on the truck, it also comes in handy when I have to push a tree down.

I like it!

A word of advice to those considering doing the same. Check your state laws before you do it. Some states prohibit anything being in front of the head lights. Even the much skimpier two or three bar thing some bars come with. I'm not sure why but the prohibition is there.

Thanks, I appreciate the thumbs up. It's satisfying to build what you need, the hours you invest are worth it in the end.

One other thing, I thank you for your continuing service to our Country.

If you go to 589fab they have a hidden winch mounting plate for the new ranger. Looks sweet. Maybe in my future. Way future haha. Not a big fan of the big bumpers. Big tires yes but big bumper is a no go for me haha

I went with the Westin Pro Mod front bumper. Looks great and found it for a crazy price on Amazon one day

I like the look, but depending on the angle of the cable I'm thinking it's going to be sawing through the stock bumper.

Looks like it blocks virtually all airflow to the intercooler...

I think that is going to be an issue with any winch bumper unless one goes the route of installing a front hitch and only mounting the winch when needed or finds a bumper that the winch mounts on top of the bumper.

A little late but the intercooler is actually behind the grill. I like the hidden mount because I love the look of the new Ranger and don't really want to change it. On the other hand a winch would allow me to be a little more adventurous out on the trails. Just added security. Maybe if it was spaced out a little it would prevent sawing into bumper. I haven't seen one on in person but to me beats one hanging off the front
