Herd’s high quality, steel drop forged eyebolts with 7/8” threads are a proven method for fastening the bumper guard in the upright position.
All HERD's Premium products come standard with fully boxed in uprights. The closed in shape is many times stronger than a conventional I-beam shape, for both head-on OR off-center impacts. They also provide a cleaner, tidier look that is easier to maintain.
All of Herd's tubing is made from high-quality, high strength 6061 aluminum. Oversize 3" tubing is standard on all premium products - the Defender, the Texas, the Aero, as well as on the ultra-premium Road Train model.
The strength and durability of a HERD comes from the interaction of the steel mounting bracket and the aluminum bumper. The design places zero weight on the hinges, so you don’t have to worry about things getting loose or rattling over time.
Our 6" oval and 2" round lights are quality LED lights.
Impact plates are steel plates integrated with the mounting bracket that provide additional impact support towards the outsides of the bumper guard. Without impact plates any bumper guard is susceptible to folding in on the outside in the event of an off-center impact. This feature is exclusive to HERD products.
Standard on our Road Train and Super Road Train models, this feature provides additional bracing to the lower rake.
Herd’s extruded light tabs provide a strong platform for even the biggest aftermarket lights.
HERD is committed to ensuring that each and every bumper arrives at its final destination in flawless factory condition. Our semi-truck bullbars are shipped standing upright, bolted to a pallet and covered with 3 layers of different protective materials. When your shipment arrives, simply pull open the tarp-like cover using the convenient draw-string on the bottom to inspect your bumper.
HERD’s AERO bumper channel features an 18” swept back profile, providing better airflow and aerodynamics for today's highway trucks.
Why extruded?
HERD's proprietary 9-step polish process is without a doubt the shining star in the industry. The end result is a mirror-like finish you can be proud to put in front of your truck.
