Constructed from 1\/8-inch steel plate with a two-stage black powder coat finish, it replaces the factory bumper while retaining the factory hitch receiver, OE parking sensors, and stock license plate lights. One fitment covers both the Silverado and Sierra 1500 across the full 2007–2018 model range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSteel Construction Built for Off-Road Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ECO Series bumper is formed from 1\/8-inch steel plate, the same material gauge used in purpose-built off-road bumpers at a higher price point. That thickness gives the rear of the truck meaningful protection against trail obstacles, rock ledges, and low-speed impacts that would crumple a stamped factory bumper. The textured non-slip surface on the step area adds grip underfoot when the terrain is muddy or wet, reducing the chance of a slip when loading or unloading gear from the bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFactory Features Stay Intact\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplacing a rear bumper often means giving up the factory hitch receiver, parking sensors, or license plate lighting. The ECO Series bumper retains all three. The factory hitch receiver pass-through means towing capacity and trailer wiring connections are unaffected. OE sensor compatibility keeps the factory backup warning system functional without additional wiring work. Stock license plate lights mount in their original positions, so the truck stays street-legal without sourcing aftermarket lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eReady for Additional Lighting\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ECO Series bumper includes mounting points for two LED cube lights, giving overland and off-road drivers a straightforward path to adding rear work lighting or reverse illumination. The mounting provisions are built into the bumper structure, so no drilling or fabrication is needed to add lights later. LED cube lights are sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1\/8-inch steel plate construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e full-replacement rear bumper with substantial impact resistance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo-stage black powder coat:\u003c\/strong\u003e textured finish resists scratches and corrosion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFactory hitch receiver retained:\u003c\/strong\u003e towing capability and trailer connections remain unchanged.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOE sensor compatible:\u003c\/strong\u003e factory parking\/backup sensors continue to function.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-in step pockets:\u003c\/strong\u003e non-slip surface for safe bed access from the rear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual LED cube light mounts:\u003c\/strong\u003e provisions for two cube lights included; lights sold separately.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eGM-2961\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1\/8-inch steel plate\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eTwo-stage black powder coat\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2007–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2007–2018 GMC Sierra 1500\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eHitch Receiver\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFactory receiver retained\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSensor Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eOE parking\/backup sensors compatible\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLED Light Mounts\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2 cube light mounting points (lights not included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eIncluded Hardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMounting bolts, nuts, and washers\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eApproximate Install Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAbout 2 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eInstall Skill Level\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLight to moderate mechanical skill\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThe ECO Series Rear Bumper suits 2007–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 owners who want a steel replacement bumper with retained factory hitch and sensor functionality, and who may want to add rear cube lighting down the road.

The Body Armor 4x4 ECO Series Rear Bumper (GM-2961) is designed to fit both the 2007–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and the 2007–2018 GMC Sierra 1500.
