Help Straycat out!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, Guys!!! First one to help me locate this Factory Item gets $150.00. I really mean this....I bought a new in the box Prerunner bumper from Ford (my dealership where I bought my new 99 Ranger). I had bought a brand new 89 Bronco II there and back in 99 I still had my Bronco II when I bought my Ranger. I went in to the parts department to see a guy about a used Warn winch he had. He took me in the back area of the building and while we were there I saw a pallet of parts in boxes all wrapped up in shrink wrap. I asked him what the parts were and he said they are obsolete stuff that have had for so long and never sold. He said they were going to a place in California. I poked around and saw a box that said Prerunnr bar. I asked him about it and he pulled the pallet apart and got it out. It was a Ford Accessories item for a Bronco II or a Ranger (bumper mounts are very close). Well I bought it for $75.00. It came with a nice super made aluminum skid plate and mounts for off road lights. The box had just a spot of water damage and the install sheet got a bit damp but that was all that was wrong with it.
Here is is:
I put it together and painted it:
Here is the install sheet. Very large photos guys.....
You can see the part number on it. If anybody here can help me locate another one of these I pay a bonus fee to that person (after I get the bumper). I really mean this, too!!! There has got to be somebody here that is good with Ford part numbers or may know where to locate obsolete parts. I sold this bumper about 5 years ago and I am still kicking myself in the ass for doing it. I just was not sure if I was going to use it. I sold it on Ebay!! I got a really good price for it as well. I should have kept that guys name and email address and I just did not to it!!!! AHHHHh!!
