Ranch hand on 3rd Gen Ram?

[_Snake_]

Got rear ended by a Passat the other week and have to replace the rear bumper, receiver, and ball mount on my 03 Ram 2500.

Thoughts on this bumper as a replacement?

My truck is all black if that matters.

Damn. Is it that bad?

I did a boondocks bumper on mine -at the time they must of just been starting out because i was able to add shackle points where i wanted and add backup lights also, what i didn't like about it was the factory bumper had bolts going through the hitch that tied it into the bumper for added support (i have had some people say the dodges were bad about the welds breaking letting the hitch roll but i have never seen it happen). Anyhow back to your question on the ranch hand I'm not a fan of diamond plate but i think they make a great stout bumper.
