1980-1996 Bronco RockSolid Triple Rack Rear Bumper (PF843)
1980-1996 Bronco RockSolid Triple Rack Rear Bumper (PF843)
This sleek bumper is made from CNC cut ¼” plate steel and offers the best body protection and style for your full-size Bronco. With its easy bolt-on installation that requires no welding or drilling, it’s hard to beat. Our design wraps around the rear corners to provide our quality protection and includes a 2” unrated receiver hitch. Our unrated receivers are capable of pulling the stock recommended weight for your Bronco.* You can also opt to delete the receiver for a smooth look or if you are looking for a place to mount your license plate, you can choose our recessed license plate bumper mod when ordering your bumper.
This very durable and modern design comes with access points for use of a hi-lift jack cut into the bumper (this is for USE of a hi-lift jack not for jack storage). Its angular design also makes it easy to use a tow hook or you can add a set of D-ring tabs for the ultimate tow points. This bumper also includes a unique tire rack designed which holds a maximum of 37” spare tire and a 2nd rack that holds one or two 5-gallon (20 liter) military style NATO Cans (Jerry Can) as well as a 16" x 24" cooler rack. These racks are made of 2"x3" x 0.188 wall rectangular tube. The hinge uses 5/8" permanently lubricated heim joints to open the racks. This ensures a smooth and easy hinge to maintain. An upgraded pivot system is available for this bumper. The upgrade includes ¾” heims, ¾” pivot bolt and the branded pivot brace. Included with this rugged tire rack is our adjustable cam latch system that will offer many years of rattle free use.
* This statement applies to our 1/4" bumper. If you plan on using the receiver to tow, please use your best judgement. Our hitches are unrated but can support the stock towing capacity of a Bronco (we do not claim this on f-series trucks) as our bumper mounting system bolts on the vehicle frame. Small and lightweight single axle trailers are typically safe to tow behind your Bronco. If you tow something that you shouldn't be towing with your Bronco, you could seriously injure yourself or others should something fail. We are not liable for any damage, loss or injury.
NEW!! Rack Lockout System: Tired of your tire carrier swinging around and hitting the side of your truck or swinging back on you when you're trying to get into the back? This is the answer you have been waiting for! Our new system stops the carrier automatically with our new t-handle pin* system. The t-handles are polished 1/2" billet aluminum. The handle slides along a plate until it is in the optimal position and then the pin is released into a slot cut out of the plate. The system is also over-rideable if you want the rack to swing wider than the plate allows, simply pull up on the t-handle and continue pushing it past the plate.

NOTES:
- If you have an XLT, you may run into an issue with the tailgate trim hitting the cam bail when the tailgate is open. To remedy this, you can run a new cable stop (approx 17") on your tailgate. Otherwise you will have to notch the trim.
- There have been several people who have successfully put these bumpers on pickup trucks. Please keep in mind that these bumpers are made for the Ford Bronco and the stock axles they come with. These bumpers will fit on F-Series pickups however the frame span is not the same, and sometimes the bolt pattern for the spare tire will be different. Mounting the rear bumper to a pickup truck is possible, however it may require moderate to heavy modification to install the bumper properly. You will have to order the correct wheel plate to make the spare tire fit. 8 lug wheel plates are an additional $45. The frame mounts will also need to be ordered unwelded and you will need to modify/create a custom bracket for mounting. We DO NOT recommend putting these bumpers on pickup trucks unless you have an experienced fabricator contracted for the job. We also DO NOT provide installation assistance in this case.
- Interior dimension between two side wings is 76"
