Noooo!!! We never like to see a damaged product. Ranch Hand is one of our sister companies. Please start with contacting who you purchased the Ranch Hand through and they should be able to work with the shipping company to file a claim. This should resolve the issue. Please let us know if you need anything else!
💙💙💙100% the shipping companies fault. The products were packaged as well as they could have been. Forklift forks take no prisoners! Haha. I know RH would take care of me regardless. I simply asked for some touch up paint since these bumpers were sent to me for review.
I wanted to try Ranch Hand for a front bumper for my 23 Ram 5500 but apparently they don't make them. So i Went with Fab Fours, have use them in the past and their bumpers are good quality and the paint never peeled off
Yep. I live in Florida now, but I was born in Moultrie, 71 years ago, and growing up, there were no deer in our immediate area. Now they are plentiful. We favor Ga. parks, especially the COE's, and especially the West Point Lake Coe campgrounds. Thanks for your reviews. We scan all your past Ga. park reviews before we schedule our trips.
Based off of this video and review I have purchased and had installed a Ranch Hand Legend bumper for my 2021 GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali. My wife is no longer going to allow me to watch your channel LOL. J/K love the look it gave my truck and I am now prepared for any four legged friends that may try to cross my path in northern WI.
I'm not generally a fan of brush guards for my trucks as I just feel they are a bit overkill for my needs, but that front hitch does look handy. Bikes are always a problem for us and a rack off the front would certainly help. Please let us know what bike rack you are using and if it has any negative effects on visibility after you get some use with it. I'd love to see a future video with bikes loaded up, how secure things feel, view from the cab going down the road, etc. I may have to check out some of Ranchhands offerings and see if anything might fit my needs.
Ranch Hand have always been nice but pricey now. I have a Peacemaker Outlaw Premium to install Wed. Scratch and dent price made it very worthwhile! Hitting a large critter that suddenly appeared in your path can change a lot of minds on these bumpers...
It's a good move, and not just a cosmetic addition. I had never considered a brush guard, because our truck is 2wd, and I don't offroad any, but one day I almost hit a huge buck......was at least an 8 pointer. Then I decided to get some protection with a brush guard, and RanchHand seemed to be the most robust. So as long as a deer doesn't jump over it and into our laps then we will probably not sustain a lot of damage.
Love it live in deer moose country seen a lot of damage to truck and car from wildlife hits it’s not pretty manufacture are not making front ends strong enough it just tinfoil bumper
Thank you for the video. Getting ready to have the Legend bumper/grill combo installed on my new '22 Ram 3500 Dually. Any special reason you wouldn't install it again if you had the chance. Thank you.
No sir you cant. I have the same truck same bumper and had to remove it not only is it too much weight on your front end. You would have to make cuts on the bottom of the bumper to allow your plow mount to stick out. Not convenient at all. Had to sell mine and install the factory bumper.
Corey you ready for the big action . I'm surprised your wife let you make that video on the scooter, you sure look like a damn fool on that thing with your cape. LOL. Plugs out.
It's not about looks, it's about protecting your vehicle from deer and other large animals that run out on the road and would normally cost $1000s and a lot of down time if you were to hit them with a factory bumper.
Don't understand the need for that bumper. Adds weight & reduses aerodynamics witch both will reduce fuel economy.. Looks ok, just pointless. Doubt you will be pushing brush while towing.
I actually love the front hitch built into the bumper. I also do more with the truck than just tow. Taking a few backpacking trips soon. I’ll be glad it’s there. It’s OK if it’s not for you.
Clearly, you’ve never hit a large animal / wildlife with your truck before. Years ago while driving home from an evening horse colic farm call, I hit a 1200 pound bovine in the middle of the road. Impact speed was about 45 mph. Had I been sans the Ranch Hand replacement on my F350, I would have been stranded.

Very nice!! I like mine more and more as time goes by!!
Thanks! Been looking to see these mods completed in a home video.
Glad I could help!

Definitely a video I have on the list! Honestly I was 50-50 on the brush guard. The hitch took it over the edge for me.

Definitely pricey but what isn’t these days unfortunately
That is beautiful man. I feel sorry for anyone that brake checks you LOL
Haha. 🤣
Went the route of the RH legend brush guard vs bumper, cheaper and easier install. I could not be more satisfied, well maybe if it was free
Looks like net weight is around 240 lbs. not bad at all for that much bumper. Truck looks good!
Appreciate that!!
Looks good I have one as well some times I wish I could take it off
Really surprised how negative the comments here are. It's his truck, his money. Personally I like the look
Nice!
that looks awesome 👌 👏 👍 I like it.
Thanks man!
Someday I'll get one of those...

Tons of backroads here in GA full of whitetail. Hopefully I’ll never NEED it but in the meantime I like how it looks.
Very nice looking Cory beefy 🥩 👍
Looks better than I thought it would.
Love it live in deer moose country seen a lot of damage to truck and car from wildlife hits it’s not pretty manufacture are not making front ends strong enough it just tinfoil bumper
No moose here but TONS of Whitetail. The factory bumper weighed around 40lbs or so. Very light.
Thank you for the video. Getting ready to have the Legend bumper/grill combo installed on my new '22 Ram 3500 Dually. Any special reason you wouldn't install it again if you had the chance. Thank you.
I actually did a vid on it.. ua-cam.com/video/FX39NkL5wYc/v-deo.htmlsi=tk15sztrBLVWGnGi
Nice - makes it look bada#%. Love it.
Appreciate that!
Did you notice the extra weight on the front of the truck?
I do feel like it tows a TINY bit better but not enough to go out and buy a bumper for that reason alone.
Can I do this alone with a floor jack as my extra hand probably?
It’ll be real tricky. I’d try and find a helper. You can definitely take the factory bumper off by yourself though.
How much length does this add to the front of the truck? I already have to use a shoe horn to get my truck in the garage. hahaha
Great question. I’d say at least 4-5 inches.
Why choose a full cover bar vs the small bull bar bumper?
More protection, matches the rest of the set.
Does the guard go on the top of the number or close to the bumper?
Would you still be able to install a plow on a setup like this?
That’s a great question. I’m in Georgia and have zero need for a plow.
No sir you cant. I have the same truck same bumper and had to remove it not only is it too much weight on your front end. You would have to make cuts on the bottom of the bumper to allow your plow mount to stick out. Not convenient at all. Had to sell mine and install the factory bumper.
Did the extra weight lower your front end at all?
Nothing noticeable. It’s a year later and I probably wouldn’t do this again.
@@WanderingWeekends thank you. I put one on my 2500hd and appears it lowered by 1/4 inch, nothing huge.
Can I ask why you would not do again?
Corey you ready for the big action . I'm surprised your wife let you make that video on the scooter, you sure look like a damn fool on that thing with your cape. LOL. Plugs out.
😂🤣
Just wish there wasn't diamond plate all over :/
Why could the factory tow hooks not stay? Looks like there's a slot for them?
Yes, they stay. If I said otherwise I was mistaken.
@@WanderingWeekends I didn't hear you mention otherwise, I (thought) heard you say remove them but never heard about reinstallation. Thank you!
Just dont understand the need for the extra weight.I dont think it makes your truck look any better.
Appreciate the feedback.
It's not about looks, it's about protecting your vehicle from deer and other large animals that run out on the road and would normally cost $1000s and a lot of down time if you were to hit them with a factory bumper.
Hehehe it’s cat Scale time. With the front bumper and rear bumper = 1000 lbs hehehe BIG DOG time
They aren’t near that heavy. Haha. Plenty of payload available so no worries there. Bonus of having a gasser. Plenty of front axle payload available.
Don't understand the need for that bumper.
Adds weight & reduses aerodynamics witch both will reduce fuel economy..
Looks ok, just pointless.
Doubt you will be pushing brush while towing.
I actually love the front hitch built into the bumper. I also do more with the truck than just tow. Taking a few backpacking trips soon. I’ll be glad it’s there.
It’s OK if it’s not for you.
Not for pushing brush, for front in protection while you are heading down a road and a large deer or wildlife runs out in front of you.
Clearly, you’ve never hit a large animal / wildlife with your truck before. Years ago while driving home from an evening horse colic farm call, I hit a 1200 pound bovine in the middle of the road.

Very nice bumper. Is it actually full pipe or is it cut in half since only the front shows anyway?
It’s solid. I’m glad I have it on this roadtrip we’re on. Deer country.
@@WanderingWeekends Bad ass!
