    So I had a little steering problem while out on my first run this weekend. (wasn't in gear going down hill and spun out) It could have been worse, so I thank God for his protection of me and my fiancé.

    But now I am looking at the All Pro bumper. Can anyone tell me about it, what does it replace? Is it bolt on? Anything I might need to know? I am new to the 4x4 thing so please don't leave any details out. I had a blast and want to continue going out.

    Oh and the bumper behind the bumper cover was bent so it will need to be replaced along with some clips and other items.

    This is prime opportunity for a bumper upgrade... I screwed up the front bumper on my Tundra and kicked myself later for not using the insurance money on a better one

    the all pro bumper was easy to install\assemble the only hard part was bolting it to the truck it took my dad and brotherinlaw to help hold it while i bolted it to the truck other that that very solid

    I like the All pro over th ARB so if I buy one that will be it...

    was it worth it for the powder coating or could I just paint it myself and be happy?

    I really want to know what had to be removed in order to install the new bumper. So i can figure out what parts I will have to have and what parts I don't.

    Like I said, I had a blast and wouldn't do anything different (other than stay in gear and slow down) so I need more protection for more adventures.
