    Only makes sense to put on a rigid steel bumper bolted to the frame thus increasing your chances of bending the frame and totaling your truck and improving the odds of personal injury by disrupting the crumple zone./s

    There is at least one style aftermarket bumper with shock absorbers, I forget the brand.
