How does your product compare to the competitors?

MagnumTruckGear.com goes above and beyond to make sure that all Magnum Truck Gear products have a superior fit and finish. First, our engineers carefully design the products using state-of-the-art technology. Then, each product is put through several rounds of prototyping. The engineers refine the design until the desired look is achieved. Then the products are built with only the finest quality materials in the U.S.A.

Where are MagnumTruckGear.com products made?

All Magnum Bumpers, Magnum RT Steps, Magnum Light Mounts, Rocker Armor™, and Light Locks products are proudly designed, tested, and produced in the United States.

What is the difference between cab length and wheel to wheel side bars?

Cab length side bars run from just behind the front wheel, to the end of the truck cab. Wheel to wheel side bars are slightly longer, running all the way from the front wheel to the back wheel. There is no difference in performance, it is simply an aesthetic choice.

What materials are Magnum Bumpers made from?

All Magnum Bumpers are constructed from premium-grade, heavy-duty, cold rolled steel.

We use a proprietary three-stage coating process on all Magnum Truck Gear products. We are one of the only companies in the industry to take this extra step! This step helps ensure that the finish will last for years to come.

How much do the Magnum Bumpers weigh?

Depending on the vehicle application, a Magnum Bumper can weigh between 125 to 175 pounds. For this reason, we recommend a two-person installation for all our bumpers.
