In the process of getting rid of my chrome bumpers what do y'all think look better the 99-07 or 08+ on a 2006 f250 and I have the backup sensors wondering if the sensors will work with a newer bumper thanks

I like the 08 rear bumper myself, hard as hell to find up here though...those backup sensors are garbage IMO, so if they don't work not a big loss

Worst case if you got an 08 bumper with sensors and they had a different plug (which I would doubt) then I would imagine you could swap in your old sensors into the new bumper.


Oh just remembered, shoot a PM over to Steph aka HRSEPWR She replaced the rear bumper on her gas truck with an 08 bumper. The old bumper had sensors and the new one had sensors too. I remember her saying it was a PITA to find an 08 with sensors in it, but never said anything about having trouble making it work on the older (05) truck.

Drill out the holes and mount the old sensors in the new bumper. I can not tell you how many times those sensors have saved me from hitting those damn short protection poles. The ones that cause 90% of the rear bumper and back are of the quarter panel damage.
