Addictive Desert Designs Bomber Front Bumper for Ford Super Duty

The Addictive Desert Designs Bomber is a plate steel front bumper built for 2017–2022 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty trucks. It pairs a modern plate steel shell with a full 3/16 in. aluminum skid plate, keeping protection high and weight lower than an all-steel alternative. Reinforced clevis mounts bolt directly to the frame, and the bumper ships in a RIGID 360 light-mount configuration with cube light mounts on each side panel.

Built from Plate Steel, Finished for the Field

The Bomber's plate steel construction gives the bumper the rigidity to absorb trail impacts without flexing at the mounting points. A hammer black powder coat covers the main shell and a satin black powder coat covers the side panels. Both finishes resist chipping and corrosion in the conditions Super Duty owners actually drive in, from desert rock to muddy two-track. Because the bumper is designed and manufactured in Chandler, Arizona, fitment tolerances are held to the truck rather than approximated from generic measurements.

Skid Plate Protection Without the Weight Penalty

The full 3/16 in. aluminum skid plate spans the underside of the bumper, shielding the lower front end from rock strikes and debris that a bare bumper leaves exposed. Aluminum at that thickness stops the damage that matters while adding less mass than a comparable steel plate, a practical trade-off on a truck that already carries significant front-end weight. The skid plate is integrated into the bumper rather than bolted on as an afterthought, so it does not shift or rattle under load.

Frame-Mounted Clevis Points, Bolt-On Installation

The reinforced clevis mounts attach directly to the frame rather than to the bumper skin, so recovery loads transfer to the strongest part of the truck rather than stressing the bumper shell. Each clevis point accepts a soft shackle for trail recovery. The entire bumper is fully bolt-on, replacing the factory bumper without cutting or welding. Vehicles equipped with adaptive cruise control require an ACC relocation bracket to maintain system function; the Bomber is not compatible with Platinum or King Ranch trim levels or with brush nickel finished grilles.

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

The Bomber front bumper suits 2017–2022 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty owners who want a bolt-on armor upgrade with integrated light mounts, a skid plate, and frame-mounted recovery points for overlanding and off-road use. It is a strong fit for trucks running RIGID 360 6 in. round lights or planning to add cube lights on the sides.

The Bomber is not compatible with Ford Super Duty Platinum or King Ranch trim levels, or with trucks that have brush nickel finished grilles. Adaptive cruise control equipped vehicles require a separate ACC relocation bracket to maintain system function. RIGID lights, soft shackles, and the ACC relocation bracket are not included. This bumper is designed specifically for 2017–2022 Super Duty and does not fit other model years or truck lines.
