Why is the Rebel aftermarket so damn empty?!

yeah you gotta bend the bracket thats behind that little oem mud flap trim piece. I have big *** husky mud dogs on my truck with 35's, had to trim them a little bit but take your time and you can make yours work and it shouldnt be noticeable
Would you mind posting a picture of the trimming you had to do?

here's my setup I'm pretty sure I got to do some major surgery on them.

this is basically everything I’ve done so I don’t rub while still being able to run those big mud flaps. Let me know if you have any questions happy to help

Potential Good News for 2019-20 Rebel Owners Looking for a winch bumper......

I have been in contact with Chassis Unlimited regarding the Octane winch bumper for my 2019 Rebel They said as of now it doesn't fit but they offered to try and create a similar one to fit 2019 and 20 Rebels. They've asked for pictures of the front of the truck and the space between the grill and engine. I've refereed them to the step by step disassembly pics on this forum for better details.

Additionally, they offered that if anyone on the forum lives near San Francisco he or she could bring a Rebel in so they could do a "scan" and create a bumper specifically for the 2019-2020 Rebel.

This is the same company mentioned in string above.

I just finished prototype rock sliders for Rams that fit the 33 gallon tank. I'm working on prototype front and rear bumpers, skid plates, bed racks for roof top tents, etc. What does everyone want to see? It will take some time to work through the prototype process but I will be offering parts for 5th gen Rams. I am prototyping everything off of my 2019 Rebel currently. I am most active on Instagram under my business page. @shifts_and_grins_fabrication

look up above to the pic i posted of a "Rebel"with a custom grill
Something like that is a possibility. It will be a little while before that gets thrown into the mix though. Since I am transitioning to nothing but Ram aftermarket fabrication, I would eventually like to offer just about everything anyone could want for a Ram. It will take time though.

Hey sooooooo...

Now their website specifically states "fits all trim levels" for this winch bumper. Was this statement there before, or did they end up test fitting a Rebel and found out that it worked? And if so, what does it look like as it can't be the same version that is made for the other trims...

all bumpers fit the issues is more so the rebel has smaller light panels two inchs smaller, so it sits higher .. reg 1500 trims are about 5 inchs.

also eco diesel like mines i have to move the inter cooler alittle furter back

I actually have been prototyping my truck with Expedition One and I am getting front bumpers, rear dual swing bumper and roof rack completed here in the next few weeks.
Checkout my Instagram @beanxoverland for updates/questions/info as I do not get on forums very often at all.


Rear dual swing is a truck.... Ram built their tailgate so wide and it drops very low, so final prototyping of that has been taking longer...

Shifts and Grins Fabrication launched rear tow hook brackets. Rock sliders coming soon just working out final details on packaging since they have to go freight. Hoping to release the rear bumper with dual swingouts next. Will probably offer a high clearance rear bumper as well. It is taking longer than we hoped but we are dedicated to this community and will continue to grow our line and offerings.
