If you plan to take your truck off roading, then you should really consider installing a nudge bar. It’s simply one of the most important modifications you can make to your vehicle in order to protect it from cosmetic damage from brush and undergrowth. Without it, anything that you might encounter on your off roading jaunts and experiences will leave a distinct mark on your vehicle, but with it, the front end will be protected from everything but that satisfying film of mud—the one that tells the world where you’ve been and what you’ve been doing. Keep your off roading souvenirs to the things you can wash off and install a nudge bar today.

What are They For?

Nudge bars get their names from their use on police vehicles. Traditionally, they are installed on these cars in order to give police a little leg up on the ability to ‘nudge’ other vehicles out of their way when necessary. A bumper is designed to crumple on impact in order to protect a car, but a nudge bar has a better support system. It is affixed to the car in such as way as to allow for repulsion from front-end impacts. It will basically help to guard the front of your vehicle from anything that you might encounter off road—and on road as well.

More Nudge Bar Benefits

As an added benefit, nudge bar kits also pave the way for other modifications to the front end of your vehicle. You can use the flat surfaces within the mount to add lights, high lift jacks, winches, and other equipment to your vehicle—all of which will allow you to customize your truck to better fit your needs. Best of all, a nudge bar kit is designed to be installed without the assistance of a professional technician. All you need is a drill and a little help with the handling and you’re all set!
