I've driven 4x4's forever. I got a great deal on a 2016 with the 5.7 Hemi. Well. When I floored it during my test drive, I was hooked. My problem is I can not find a after market steel front bumper that will give me decent clearance, tow hooks, ***** mount, and extra deer protection. Any ideas out there or home made mods i can feel comfortable not ripping off have my plastic bumper and add a few must have winch i can live without. Thanks in advance.

Whatever bumper you get, the Rebel front end cosmetic parts are pretty expensive to buy individually so you may be able to recoup some $$ if you remove them carefully and sell them.

AEV one is out of stock. And given that sudden price reduction I have a feeling AEV is getting rid of anything they make for the 1500 market and have no plans to support it anymore.

There are a few options out there. They weight around 100 to 250lbs or more without the winch. If you plan to go elephant hunting with your truck nose then the heavier the front bumper the better but they'll be very bulky.
