Dont waste your money, its cheap and made of soft metal that bends when you look at it. Was a PINA to put together too. JUNK!! I will make my own bumpers from now on.....or have Dave make one. Heres a pic after I bumped a tree.....

Ill be welding it up and enforcing it w/ sch 40 pipe.

Bought the bumper and hardware from Warn, wasnt cheap either. I havent been happy w/ it for awhile now but this was the straw that broke the camels back.

:lollol: Tin foil!! May as well have been a body panel, huh? Well, I don't know about you, but I don't use anything less than 3/16" thick, and for that reason....I also don't make mine a bolt together POS either
