Or does anyone have first hand experience with a bumper that is confirmed to work with sensors besides Fab Four.

I have a hammerhead armor bumper, and can confirm that they have the cut out holes for the sensors. However, my truck doesn't have parksense so I can't confirm if they work properly or not. I don't see why they wouldn't

I have a Westin HDX rear bumper on my 2016 2500.......it allows for the back up sensors and also has extra reverse lights in it plus tabs to mount shackles. I do wish it had the cut out corners for steps though

Any issues with it, how do you like it?

Zero issues. Have had it on almost a year. Quality built, and love the look. Finish is holding up great as well.

Thanks for the reply, i have the same side steps as you and am not happy with them at all.

i wish i know if the sensors worked for sure or not, might just pull the trigger and say F the sensors if they don’t work.

Yeah, my steps started to rust out after about 2 winters. Know what you mean. Thinking about going with AMPS

What is the warranty on those? My nfab steps on my 2nd gen were 5 years. I emailed them right at the 5 year mark and they sent me a brand new set of steps no issues.

As for the OP, I have their bumpers and love the fit and finish. As for the sensors... they fit perfectly fine but apparently sometimes have issues if you unplug them and try to reinstall them. I'm trying to deal with my dealer right now cause only 2 of the 10 sensors are working and they were gonna replace them but then I guess ram asked for photos so they said they could only warranty it if I switched my front bumper back on. Of course this is no fault of the bumper. I would just do some more research on how you switch the sensors over or ask your dealer about it. They do fit thoScreenshot_20191105-001648_Gallery.jpg Screenshot_20191105-001715_Gallery.jpg

Those steps have a 1 year warranty on the finish. Mine have also rusted and are not very sturdy either.

Thanks, i will look into how to handle the sensors. I know a lot of aftermarket bumpers will cause them to go off all the time cause they will sense the shackles or the pre-runner bar.
