As long as you don't hit any little old ladies crossing the street with that bumper you are in good shape. That is a great feeling when you see a company stand behind their product. Only in America! Good luck on the next chapter of your life John. You never know you may end up where you started in Minnesota.
When you talk to Ranch Hand, ask them to increase the strength of the steel; that comes up to the bottom tube below the headlights. If a impact occurs in that area, it will usually slam the headlight area tubing into the truck body. It appears they have a small piece of steel there.
As soon as I heard you say ranch-hand is owned by the corporation (lippered) that makes all the modern trailer frames, that all I needed to hear, I’ve seen the quality and how the handle under perfect conditions. Trash products and customer service.
Actually, I just watched the 1st vid today. The date today is 5/4/2024, then this vid popped up on my feed tonite. You tube algorithm ? Thx for the vid, BTW, I just subbed you to
Thanks so much for this! Do you think that they've modified it since your video so that now it doesn't? I was playing with the settings and it seems there is a way to turn off the pre collision thing but it seems like that woulnd't be advisable. I'm not so handy so I would probably be getting in installed at a local shop, so I"m wary of buying it without knowing to fix it. Maybe I'll get just the grille guard only version instead of with the bumper? Between this and maybe setina or maybe fab four matrix guard?@@JDSOutdoors
@---tx9xx well if you do buy the ranch hand I sell a bolt in bracket that fits the Ford factory sensor into the ranch hand bolt holes. But to answer your 1st question 2 months ago it still wasn't fixed. I have another bumper on the way should be here in a week or 2 but I still don't think it's fixed. We will see.
Do you have any recommendations for someone who was about to buy one? I’m buying one asap for the 2021, but now the other video with the correct bracket design is gone🥲
I would buy one and see if they changed the bracket yet,if they haven't let me know I can get you that bracket video. Or if you wait a little while yet maybe something will come out of them checking out my truck beginning of 23
Wow! That is potentially great news. Prayers lifted for your family and success. Will definitely be looking for updates.
Always enjoying following along to see what new in your world. You always have a plan.
This is excellent news. I just ordered mine for my '22 and can't wait to have it on.

I won't be hitting them but I'm 50% sure one of them hit me at the Walmart parking lot. I found scratches on it after a trip there one day.
I actually watched both videos which led me to this one im looking into guards for my 2023 f250 platinum being we have tons of deer in central ny

Sad to hear, I wasn't familiar. Which grille guard company would you recommend now for th '22 f-150 that won't interfere with the sensors?
Same, here, Lippert destroys the quality of most everything they buy. knowing that, I will not buy another ranch hand bumper
Good for you bro
Actually, I just watched the 1st vid today. The date today is 5/4/2024, then this vid popped up on my feed tonite. You tube algorithm ? Thx for the vid, BTW, I just subbed you to
That algorithm is wild some days. Thanks for the follow
@@JDSOutdoors your welcome Bro, BTW, Me in Melbourne, Fla. I Try an support all Fla channels
Did the bumper cause your front end to squat? And if so, how much and what did you do to fix it?
Not at all
@@JDSOutdoors thank you!!
@zach rollins no problem. The factory stuff weighs probably about 70-80 lbs and the ranch hand is only 150 so the difference isn't much.
I just watched it... It's Fair..
What’s your mileage change with this bumper?
Not sure really. Couple mpg
I have purchased the bumper, and my adaptive cruise control is not working. Can you help me with the bracket?
I'm meeting with ranch hand in 2 weeks let me see what I can do. In the meantime you can zip tie it into your grill and that should allow it to work.
Can you explain what orientation of sensor?
@ich4fun1 needs to be vertical not horizontal
@JDS Outdoors I guess I got old bracket, can you post what you did on yours
@@ich4fun1 call ranch hand they will send out the new one. I had to remove my video about it.
So this is only an issue for a full bumper, not just a brush guard?
Correct
did they threaten to sue you or did the buy you off?
@@yantolee4017 neither
Wait so does it activate your auto-braking pre collision thing or not?
Sure does unless you fix it

Thank you, please keep me updated! And, how can I purchase that bracket from you? (am in S FL)@@JDSOutdoors
@---tx9xx if you decide you need one send me an email and I can ship one out. They are $50 shipped and I accept pay pal or venmo.

@@JDSOutdoors awesome! Thanks for the info!
to the best of your knowledge have they fixed the adaptive pre collision issue? @@JDSOutdoors
