Front Bumper Options ?

[amxtra]

After spending some time searching I found a few rear bumper replacements both rollpan and fiberglass. But found nothing for front bumper.
I have a 97 and want to drop weight on the vehicle, especially on the front.
Any ideas ?

To my knowledge their are no "light weight" replacements for front bumpers on a Ranger. Your best option for cutting weight might be a later model bumper that has less metal and more plastic, but it won't quite match your front end due to a dip in the center of the bumper.

Personally I don't think you'd gain enough from changing the bumper to make it worth while, even if their was a light weight option available.

Here's a picture of a 93/97 Ranger with the newer Ranger bumper that's more plastic and less metal.

That bumper looks ok on there. Brackets the same or how much modification required to make work ?
