BUMPERS
Refer to the above illustration for bumper components and locations.
Front and rear bumpers are designed to protect the radiator (8005), lighting equipment and sheet metal from damage due to minor impacts. Bumpers are constructed of heavy-gauge steel and attach to the front and rear of the vehicle frame (5005). Standard model Econoline vans and XL model Club Wagon have light charcoal-painted front and rear bumpers. Options include black or white painted bumpers. XLT and Chateau models have chrome front and rear bumpers standard. On chrome front bumpers, there is an added front valance panel (17626) molded in light charcoal. On regular chrome rear bumpers, there is an added rear bumper stone deflector (17808) molded in light charcoal. Other options include step-type rear bumpers (rear bumpers not available on RV and cutaway models). On standard Econoline and XL models, rear step-type bumpers are painted in light charcoal. On XLT and Chateau models, rear step-type bumpers are chrome. Both painted and chrome step-type bumpers have anti-skid step pads.
