Wanting to add a brush/ grill guard to my 1997 Ranger but cant seem to find any for a truck that old. Need info on any sources that still offer these or what similar brush guards will fit with minimal modification. Any help greatly appreciated.

I moved this over to the custom bumper forum.

Maybe post a picture of what you think you want. It would help us offer help.

I know there are bull bar type offerings on Amazon.

Affordable Offroad has some pretty nice complete bumpers... pricey but nice.

Considering how much steel has gone up lately, those bumpers may not be as expensive as you think. At least not when compared to buying the materials to make your own.

I'm a cheapskate so would be more likely to find something close to the right size and local to make work. Like my bar. Was built for a 80-something F250. It "fit" with some work.

I know this is a production aftermarket bumper, but it was on it when I got it. No idea who makes it but it's definitely got to be available somewhere for a Ranger/Brono II. I just wish it had some recovery points for shackles.
