    Just installed this a couple days ago. Install was pretty dang easy and this thing is a beast! I'm very pleased that I decided to go this route over custom although there is nothing wrong with custom. I might have to adjust the side gap a bit because it's touching when I get on dirt roads. I highly recommend this bumper!!

    Thanks guys. Yeah, wish ARB offered something other than that top bar but that's it. At least it will be protected.

    Thanks. I'm pretty sure the bumper alone weighs around 80lbs. I lifted and installed it by myself. The winch with synthetic line probably weighs around 30lbs??? I have the 5100's set at 2.5" So far it's sagged about 1/2 an inch. Don't know if it will continue but I have the firmer Eibach's from Toytec to hopefully correct it if so.

    Looks great! One in my future... very distant future. I have a question though. How do the fog lights wire up? Do they use the existing wiring?
