For our face. Never quite figured out how to make an airbag sensor work with a full front end replacement, so I always just take out the fuse and sensor. But then you're stuck with that annoying red light on your dash... So if anyone knows how to get rid of THAT light, let me know

I know several people who have had to do work on there front end shortly after putting a ranchand on . I personally likes the looks of a ranchand and would have one if they werent so heavy. I dont want to spend the money on front end parts. Im looking at getting a frontier .

You dont need airbags if your going fast enough... Your truck will plow through whatever you hit. :-D

yeah there is pros and cons with putting a heavy bumper on the front.one con would be it might put some strain on front end parts but so does the cummins engine and we all love them, anyways ball joints are common on 2weel drives with or without big bumpers. pros would be like my cousin that hit a tree doin 75mph and the trooper told him that if it wasn't for his ranchhand he would have been dead. they also work for catchin deer

Though you have to hit the deer just right. I prefer to nail just the head, that way you don't spoil the meat by bustin the gut sack. But to each their own I suppose...
