Like the title says, will an ascender bumper bolt up to a proclimb chassis? Searched a while and couldn’t find a yes or a no. Plastics obviously changed along with width of running boards, wondering if the front of the bulkhead is the same. Thanks
Ascender front bumper on proclimb

Bulkhead is the same. Some of the ascender bumpers are shorter (closer to the nose of the sled) and may not stick out as far as the Proclimb bumpers. Other place that might be different is the Acender has a wider plastic piece at the front, lower a-arm mount that some of the ascender bumpers have tabs that bolt to.
so you’re thinking it would fit if it clears the nose? Just curious because there’s more choices for ascender platform.
I think some of them would fit with no issues and some with minor modifications. Using this Arctic Cat accessory bumper as an example, the brackets that bolt to the side of the bulkhead are all the same bolt pattern (circled in blue). The tabs circled in orange could be cut off if they bothered you.
Something designed like the BM Fab one would fit without any issues I would think.

The two extra tabs go to a plastic flap added to ascender, not structural, just deflects snow.
I just got done pre-fabricating my own (minor finish work then paint left), still added two tabs down low to bolt into the bulkhead.
That looks good, should take a stump if/when it happens lol. Looks fairly light too…Did you weigh it?
Haven't weighed it yet, still need to paint it and rivet it to the oem steel brackets, just the aluminum is less than 2lbs i'm sure.
Anything was better than the bent up purple oem loop.
