1994-2002 Thuren Fabrication Modular Front Bumper

We really pushed the envelope with our 2nd Gen Bumper!
The tips of the factory frame have literally the weakest bumper mounting we've ever seen, so there was no way we were going to bolt a respectable bumper on these trucks while using only the OEM mounting locations.

When you take the weight of the truck into consideration, any bumper bolted to the OEM mounting point is just cosmetic, and in no way can truly protect the truck.
Below are details explaining the bumper components, what's included, why we're selling it in sections, etc.

MAIN CRADLE

• This is the base foundation of the bumper. It cradles the entire lower frame front section going all the way back to the Swaybar frame mounts while also creating a skid plate to help protect internal components. We designed it this way to add height and triangulation to the assembly so that if/when you take a hit to the front of the bumper, everything is supported and won't easily fold back and damage every component mounted to the core support.
• The Cradle Base is the main game changer regarding our 2nd Gen bumper design. We are offering this cradle by itself, for people that want to finish fabricating their own bumper off of this foundation. A tube bumper built off this cradle would be great!
• All supplied cradles are the same, so they also include the Shackle Mounts, knock-out plate for a winch Fairlead (you need to drill for a Fairlead bolt holes if you want one), vent/access holes, and the winch bolt pattern on the underside if you want to add our Weld-In Crossmember kit.

 WELD IN WINCH CROSSMEMBER

• Our crossmember will allow you to fit the more compact winches in the same high approach angle bumper. Very "Power Wagon esque." You are not going to fit a big spool 16.5k Warn or 25K winch.
• As welding/fab jobs go, the weld in crossmember is a process. One vertical cut through each side of the OEM crossmember, clean off the paint, tack new crossmember in place, final weld around each end, paint, and done.
• This crossmember also bolts to the bumper cradle, which creates an even more bomb proof combo! We recommend tacking the crossmember in place with the center Main Cradle bolted up for alignment.

Winches that fit:

• Harbor Freight ZXR 12k
• Warn M8000, 9.5XP-S
• Sherpa Steed 17k with 28m spool

 UPPER CENTER

• If you wanted to build your own tube outers, the lower Cradle plus the upper is also a great place to build from!
• Upper center can hold a 30" light bar or 6 pod lights.

OUTER WINGS

• These don't need much description. Super strong bolt on outers, that match the design of our other Dodge Ram bumpers. One single Pod Light can fit in each one.
