Receiver-Ready • Rugged Protection • Built for Real-World Overlanding
Upgrade your Sprinter van with the G.O.A.T Series Receiver Front Bumper, engineered for explorers who demand reliable front-end protection without sacrificing style or function. Designed for the toughest terrain and built from high-grade steel, this bumper provides crucial defense for your radiator, oil pan, and engine, while offering full utility with a 2” receiver and dual recovery points.
Built for Overland Adventures
The G.O.A.T (Goes Over All Terrain) Series bumper is as functional as it is resilient. With a receiver capacity comparable to a Class 3 hitch and a tongue weight rating around 500 lbs, it's perfect for carrying cargo carriers, bike racks, and even small trailers. Whether you're hauling mountain bikes or heading off-road with a pit bike, this bumper is up to the task.
❗ Motorcycle Note: While the bumper can support loads like 125cc bikes or multiple e-bikes, we do not provide a certified rating for all motorcycle setups due to wide variations in weight, terrain, and rack types. Use your best judgment for specialized applications.
