is there anything special about the lightning bumper compared to a regular f-150 bumper. i went to the ford dealership and the guy told me he wanted 680 bux for the 94 ford lightning bumper. if there are any differences which i would assume there is with this price tag, could any of you guys tell me what it is, thanx-andrew

Were you looking to purchase the step, or the tube style bumper?I would venture a guess (uneducated of course) that the Ford dealer would be looking for substantially more $$ for a tube bumper, as it was an option on these trucks, and not standard. Don't forget, also, that the L bumper is rated at 25 more horsepower than that of the standard F150 (LOL), but don't quote me on that exact number.

I believe the bottom corner by the wheels is pushed 3/4" towards the front to allow enough room for the tires to turn without rubbing on the bumper. Find a reg F-150 in a parking lot and take a cab to bottom of bumper measurement and compare it to a L. Hope this helps.

After my deer smashing episode I dealt with the claims man on this issue. The lightning bumper is about $650, it comes red and with holes for the spoiler and bump gaurd. I would get an unpainted one and paint it my self. I think non painted XLT bumpers go for about $300.
