If anyone has a TJ with Ranch Hand bumpers please post a few pics please. Lifted would be even better, but beggars can't be choosers. Pretty sure this is the route I am going, but would like to see. Thanks

Are you looking for a ranch hand or an after market bumper with a stinger? I have a smittybilt bumper it was on there when I bought it. It works for now.

Yea mine came with a "Grille Guard", I am going to do a "Full Replacement" probably in Ranch Hand brand. I am going to do an aftermarket with Bull Bar for sure, not an aggressive outward stinger. Thanks though

You may want to take a look at metalcloak as well ranch hands just seem kind of bulky to me.

yea, i have been looking at alot of bumpers this week. IMO that metalcloak one I saw was ugly. I know how much opinions count though LOL. I want a full width, not one that shows under the wheel wells from the front view. Fab Fours lifestyle, the ARB, and the Ranch Hand is what I have been leaning towards.

That metalcloak ONE?

I can understand not liking their overall style, but the whole point of MetalCloak's system is that you build the bumper you want...stubby, short, long, full grill guard, no guard, recovery points, no recovery points, etc, etc...its completely modular:

Jeep Wrangler Frame Built(TM) Modular Bumpers for CJ/YJ/TJ/LJ

Anyway, from what I've seen, Ranch Hand is more popular among the pickup crowd than the Jeep crowd. Just means if you get it your Jeep will be a bit more unique.

Well hell Bubba, that one looks alot better than the pic I got when i did a search. Thanks for the link, now to find pricing and rears to match and take a deeper look.

Yea the metalcloak site has a few prebuilt ones but they also have a page with all their different options where you can select your own style.
