If you are tired of flimsy factory bumpers that dent in a heavy rain, or plastic end caps that shatter with the slightest bump, your day just got a whole lot better. We are very proud to introduce our own GoWesty designed, hand-built plate steel bumpers. These could very well be the last bumpers you will ever buy for your van. With their 12-gauge plate steel and ultra rigid boxed design, these bumpers are extremely tough while remaining lightweight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eWe developed this bumper to have minimal overhang in any direction to optimize ground clearance and reduce approach and departure angles. These features are especially important for off-highway environments. So if you have been looking for extra impact protection, or a new tough look for your Vanagon, our bullet proof plate steel bumpers are just the ticket.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeatures:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• \u003c\/span\u003eLight yet strong 12 gauge steel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• \u003c\/span\u003eFully boxed construction for ultimate strength\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• \u003c\/span\u003eDurable black hammer semi-gloss wrinkle finish powder coat\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• Front \u003c\/span\u003e2\" receiver hitch compatible* (sold separately)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• \u003c\/span\u003eSimple bolt on installation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• \u003c\/span\u003eHardware, mounting brackets and detailed instructions included\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e• \u003c\/span\u003eFits all Vanagon models (2WD \u0026amp; 4WD) from 1980-1991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*Need a front hitch too?\u003c\/strong\u003e Our front bumper is designed to accept our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gowesty.com\/products\/front-mounted-2-hitch-receiver-for-gowesty-plate-steel-bumper?_pos=4\u0026amp;_sid=b2e13eab4\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eBolt-on 2\" Receiver Hitch\u003c\/a\u003e.
