Lighting

Lighting is a critical part of your bumper. There are considerations of snow and fog conditions, high speed driving, city vs. off-road, search and exploration, light source – halogen, HID, LED, and budget. BUCKSTOP offers a variety of solutions for all lighting needs. The STANDARD configuration is one pair of built-in 6" round lights. The information below shows additional light-mount options available on most BUCKSTOP bumpers.

Standard Lighting

EVERY BUMPER COMES READY FOR A PAIR OF 6" ROUND LIGHTS

Note: The bumper comes with universal mounts for single post bottom mount lights. Factory lights will NOT mount directly into the bumper. In most cases the factory wiring harness and dashboard switch can be used to run aftermarket lights.

Materials

Choice of Three Materials

Buckstop Bumpers are built to be used and abused. The bumper is fully intended to protect the vehicle through an optimal balance of strength and weight. Buckstop Truckware is a full engineering and manufacturing facility with all operations in-house. Custom designs are available as well as special materials. Buckstop works in standard carbon steel, aluminum, and stainless steel.

CARBON STEEL

The main-stay of Buckstop's heavy-duty, high strength top quality Bumpers

Carbon is the basic steel from which most things including most bumpers are made. It is very difficult to dent in animal strikes and resilient in other collisions. Buckstop bumpers for full sized rigs are 1/4″ steel in the primary impact zone and winch center and 3/16″ steel under the headlights. Half ton full size vehicles are 3/16" throughout.

The advantages of Carbon Steel are low cost and its ability to absorb impact.
A typical 3/4 ton full-sized bumper with grill guard weighs approximately 220lbs.

ALUMINUM

Light-weight aluminum engineered to maintain Buckstop's tradition of brute strength

Aluminum is a favorite choice in cases where weight is critical. To maintain Buckstop's standard of strength, the aluminum bumpers are 3/8" thick in the primary impact zone and winch center and 1/4″ steel under the headlights. The geometry and gusseting is enhanced as well. The aluminum bumpers use steel mounting to the frame and steel Grill Guard tubing where the bumper is especially vulnerable. In addition, the 2" trailer receiver is a steel bolt-on configuration. It could easily be made lighter, thinner, and without so many features, but it comes at the cost of strength.

The advantage of aluminum is a weight savings of 90lbs over steel and a resistance to corrosion.
Finish – the aluminum bumpers are powdercoated just like steel.
A typical 3/4 ton full-sized bumper with grill guard weighs approximately 130lbs.

STAINLESS STEEL

Maximum strength. Maximum corrosion resistance.

Stainless steel is a higher strength material than regular steel that will essentially never rust.

The advantage of stainless steel is excellent resistance to corrosion.
Finish – the stainless steel bumpers are powdercoated just like steel.
A typical 3/4 ton full-sized bumper with grill guard weighs approximately 220lbs.

Winches

WINCH SELECTION – Buckstop bumpers are built for most 4-1/2″ x 10″ bolt pattern winches. There is ample access to the winch controls and cable through the 28″” access opening on top of the bumper. Winches can be mounted foot down or foot forward. Buckstop offers a selection of WARN winches matched to an assortment of needs encountered by our customers. When selecting a winch, consider how often you will use it and the demands of the situation (long pulls, difficult terrain, etc). Two “”sport”” winches are offered including the popular air-compressor winch combo and the light-weight Zeon series.

These winches will NOT work: Warn VR EVO, Ramsey RE Series worm drive, Superwinch, and all Megawinch.

Colors

Powder Coat colors include full sandblast, phosphate wash, two-coat – primer and top coat – baked on industrial powder coating. STANDARD COLORS: STEEL GREY and BLACK – Standard.
