How Smittybilt Bumpers and Seat Covers Can Transform Your Truck

Talk about a win-win situation: when you invest in certain parts for your Off-Highway-Vehicle, you make your truck look better while increasing its protection. There are a number of ways you can accomplish this, however, few ways are as dramatic as installing Smittybilt bumpers to your Jeep, truck, or SUV.
Not familiar with custom off-road vehicle bumpers? Many drivers have found these parts to provide tremendous advantages for your truck, especially if you are using them for both recreational off-road riding and work.

The vast majority of truck bumpers are formed by tubular steel that is powder coated with a durable, Dual Stage paint that provide enhanced protection from rocks and other obstacles you face when off-roading. Aside from protection bumpers offers to the front of your vehicle, they also protect the radiator and other mechanical components under the hood.
Smittybilt bumpers come in a variety of finishes, and you can choose the perfect one based on your preferred finish to match your other truck accessories to achieve a specific, unique look.
Take the following important factors into account when looking for a good bumper for your vehicle:
1. Increase the possibility of finding perfect fit for your new bumper by looking for a bumper designed to fit the specific make and brand of your truck, Jeep, or SUV. You can rule out the possibility of having to drill new holes in your truck’s underside by doing this.
2. Be sure to get an entire truck bumper package, complete with running boards and/or other component parts, such as custom Smittybilt seat covers.
3. Be certain that you consider the gauge of steel that your choice of bumper is made of. In general, the thicker the better since it provides more protection. Bear in mind, however, a heavy will add more weight to your truck, which will affect gas mileage, and so forth.
After settling on these above points, the next order of business is to decide on the type of style. This largely depends on the appearance of material your new bumper is made out of. And lastly, you will need to choose the type of your installation of your new bumper. You have the option of doing it yourself as these Smittybilt bumpers bolt on directly to your vehicle, requiring no drilling or other permanent modifications. Or you can seek out skilled mechanic’s assistance. In either case, you will be enjoying your new bumper and other accessories in no time whether speeding down the highway or crawling through rough terrain out off-roading with your buddies.
