The 2025 mid-cycle refresh added a new fascia, geometric grille, split quad LED headlights, and a redesigned 6.7L Cummins HO at 430 hp / 1,075 lb-ft. Verify your model year in each listing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a bumper labeled for the 2019-2026 Ram 2500/3500 fit a 2010-2018 truck?
No. The 4th-gen Ram HD ended at the 2018 model year, and the 5th-gen DJ/D2 launched in 2019 with different frame mounting. Bumpers labeled 2019-2026 do not interchange with 2010-2018 trucks. Verify the year range on each listing.
Will an aftermarket bumper work with ParkSense on a 2019-2026 Ram 2500/3500?
Trucks with factory ParkSense (sales code XAG) need sensor cutouts. Some bumpers retain ParkSense, others do not. The Hammerhead 600-56-0960 Frontier Low Profile is not compatible with parking sensors or adaptive cruise. Each listing notes compatibility.
Will a heavy steel front bumper sag the suspension on a Cummins Ram 2500/3500?
Front bumpers on this page run from 179 lbs (Hammerhead 600-56-0960 Frontier Low Profile) to 250 lbs (Fab Fours GR4400-1 Grumper). The Cummins 6.7L diesel loads the front axle heavily. From what we've seen across our orders, owners adding 200+ lb fronts pair the install with leveling kits or stiffer coils.
