Deciding Which Truck or Jeep Custom Bumper is Right for You?

It is important for your truck or jeep to have a bumper that looks good when you are in town. However, if you like off-roading you need to balance the look of your ride with the dependability and durability as well. When considering which custom truck or jeep bumpers to add to your vehicle there are a lot of things to consider. Let’s take a look at some of the factors that go into a decision about your bumper.

The first thing to consider are the materials. There are essentially 3 types of bumpers available: Steel, aluminum, and factory. Since steel bumpers are the gold standard, we will use them in a series of comparisons to give you a better idea of what you can expect from the various bumpers.

  • Steel vs Factory – Factory truck Bumpers usually consist of a bare minimum of steel and aluminum which serves as a bracing under a bumper cover. This cover is usually made of ABS plastic. This flimsy construction does not inspire confidence when you are taking your truck or jeep into the wilds of off-roading adventure. Additionally, a factory bumper is extremely incompatible with the various accessories that associated with off-roading. Adding winches or lights is nearly impossible with most of these bumper models.
  • Steel vs Aluminum – Unlike their factory cousins, aluminum truck bumpers can survive off-road driving. This is fine if you want to go mudding. Aluminum is rust proof, and it makes for a much lighter load and a less sluggish ride. But what if you want to do some climbing on rocky terrain? Anyone who has taken their 4X4 into these situations knows you are going to have impacts along the way. With an aluminum truck bumper you can cause strains in rivets and welds, which often lead to weakening the aluminum. With steel, these impact dents will never impair the strengths of the truck bumper. Overall steel is the better choice, especially if you upgrade your truck accessories, springs or shocks to handle the additional weight.
           

That takes care of the comparisons let’s look at the pros and cons of each truck and Jeep bumper in turn.
