RIVAL Aluminum Bumper for Ranger Raptor

[ClickClickBoom]

Any update on the bumper? Looking to install a winch this spring, and this is at the top of the list.

Unfortunately there were quite a few differences on the US Ranger Raptor. Our engineers have the scans we took when the factory bumper was removed and they will be working on changes needed to fit the US spec.

Any plans for non-Raptor bumper?

Non Raptor bumpers will be coming, but unfortunately we don’t have a time frame yet.

We have successfully fit our first US specific bumper on our Ranger Raptor. There are some minor improvements we would like to see before it goes into final production but overall we are very happy with the outcome.

Looks good. How's the airflow to the intercooler? Rear bumper in the works?

Do you know if you need to remove the vent assembly for the vent louvers for the intercooler with a winch?

The reason I ask is that I put a Wagner intercooler on, but it keeps the vent louvers. I am trying to figure out if I can fit this with a winch with the Wagner intercooler. I would think so, since the intercooler still fits with vent louvers in place. So, if I have to remove the assembly, that is fine, and I think a winch would still fit. The intercooler only sticks more forward by like 1/4 inch compared to stock.

The openings in our bumper are slightly larger than stock. The Winch solenoid pack is behind the ACC sensor, however with a winch mounted you are sacrificing a bit of airflow due to the winch frame.
We have a rear bumper for the global market, however at this point it’s still undecided if we will be bringing it to the US.

The active vent shutters remain intact with out bumper. I wish I had experience with the Wagner intercooler but I imagine if it is not thicker than the factory+shutters it should fit fine.

So,

If the winch still fits in front of the louvers, then the Wagner will certainly work since it sits behind the louvers. To install the Wagner you just need to trim a bit of the lip on the louver assembly, but then you mount the louver assembly right back in the stock location.

This is good news for me. Let me know when I can order this. I transferred the skid plates that you guys sent me for testing last May from my Lariat (got rear ended and it got totaled), to the new Raptor I bought. I had to make the same few mods to get them to fit since they are the Aus version, but I love those things and am very excited to put this bumper on.

Here’s a shot from a different angle we took while at the warehouse today.

Which skid plate is that on the very front? The one I have under the radiator looks different from the one in your picture. It is the one you sent me last May. I think I may need to get an updated one but I don't see this on your site.

Mine looks like this.

That looks like a radiator skid from our global catalogue. What you see on our US Ranger Raptor is the factory Ford radiator skid plate. We have our own in the works for the US market vehicles but they are not yet available.

Every time I get out of the truck I can’t help but turn around and look at it with the new front bumper installed.

Looks great to me so I understand

Thanks!

There is a 20” Single Row rigid radiance light bar at the top of the bumper, and our own multi function flush mount lights in the bumper.
