Push Bumper?

Anyone seen a "push bumper" that will fit the curves of the
97-01 F-150 front bumper? (By "push bumper" i mean the pair of bumpers you see on police cruisers sometimes.)
I have seen one pair in JC Whitney's but they look pretty generic and don't appear to come close to matching the curves right. Thanks.

Thumbs up Try This

Try www.galls.com. They are a law enforcement supplier and they may have what you are looking for.

Thanks 250, that looks like it (i would never have found it on my own!).

Another question for you:
They have a set for the 97-99 expedition. The front bumper should be the same, don't you think?

I will give you a holler when I get it. The one I was leaning towards was the Go Rhino! push bumpers (w/o the brush guard part).
They have one for the 97-98 expy 2/4x4. I asked tech support just now (via email) if it would fit the F-150 and if i would have to alter that plastic "skid plate" right under the front bumper. Not sure if the 250 has it but on mine, the plastic piece has two large cut-outs for the tow hooks. i asked if they could find out if it will install in those 2 slots w/o me having to slice up the plastic. And i asked them to email me a pic of the bumpers (no pic was avail).

Was reading your setup on your f-250. Very nice! Especially the rolling bed cover (been a wet-dream of mine ) but i didn't see anything about your exhaust. Do you still have the original single side exhaust?

Thumbs down Unfortunatly I do

I do still have the OEM exhaust, saving my pennies for a Flowmaster Y pipe, and a Dynomax Ultra Flo cat back kit with a side exit behind the wheel. I do have the plastic plate on mine too. I removed the tow hooks for a cleaner look, besides one was bent from an accident prior to me owning the truck. I have some before pics on my site, going to get the new pics up there this weekend.
