Bumper is a kind of structure that is attached or integrated in the front and rear end of the vehicle. The presence of bumpers helps absorb the impact in case of an accident. This in turn protects the truck as well as the passengers, if there is a minute bump. Some of the front bumpers now days are designed from softer materials that lowers the impact on legs of pedestrian if an accident occurs.

Apart from these safety regulations, the truck bumper also adds to the style of the vehicle.

Initially the truck bumper where designed only to add ornamental beauty to the truck. But with the passage of time along with the design the material has also improved to ensure the safety. Now the bumpers that can provide direct bolt on replacement are available without any drilling. In order to guarantee utmost durability and strength the front bumpers are mounted directly.

Off road use of truck has increased with time. But the protection offered by factory bumper cannot match the strength of Mother Nature. So, a selection of bumpers based on the vehicle types is available. Unlimited customization is offered for truck bumpers.

Addictive desert designs, ARB, Body Armor, hammerhead, Ranch Hand are some of top brands that manufacture high quality bumpers. Winches, off-road light, custom fender flares etc. can be used the way one wants and adds to the customization of the truck. Customization can be done based on the type of truck that one is working on. There are a number of websites available that offer us with the best possible way to customize the vehicle.

A slight flaw is present in almost everything. The rear bumper sometimes acts as an obstacle while parking the vehicle. The rear bumper interferes with the performance of the parking sensors.

So, to conclude I would say that, if we keep aside the minute flaw offered by bumper, the bumpers are a must for the trucks. Especially when on an off road trip the bumpers guard the truck as well as travelers. One must use the best quality bumpers and ensure full safety.
