Every rear bumper I find & like says "Excluding Raptor"...

[rlmfire288]

I'm particularly interested in the Barricade and Rough Country tubular rear bumpers. They actually look like they are the same minus the RC and Barricade labels. I've measured the rear corner to corner of my Raptor and a few other Broncos at my local dealer. Same measurement. Examining pictures of Raptors with the flares removed makes me think the sheet metal it's self isn't flared out like the front fenders are.

Any one try a non-raptor approved rear bumper of any manufacturer or design? Any one try the tubulars that I like? Do any of them actually fit like I think they will despite the "excluding Raptor" warnings?

What have you all found so far with rear bumpers?

I don’t have any experience with rear bumper fitment but, I can confirm that there are several products that Ford states will not fit the Raptor and they do - FP Winch, Soft top are a pair that I have first hand experience with with.

Is it possible to buy the bumper from a supplier that would accept a return if it doesn’t fit? (Because based on your measurements and the fact that the rear bumper is nearly identical to my former Badlands, I suspect it will fit) YMMV
