    I believe he cut up a CBI hybrid bumper and only used the center section. It turned out to look pretty decent if you asked me, but then again, why wouldn't you want the extra protection?

    He does do a lot of aluminum bumpers. It's just more costly. He uses some tube but doubt he'd be mass producing any hybrid bumpers. I think as far as size, it wouldn't be any bigger than 4xi's and I'm almost positive there will be a swing out option.

    Maybe that's what it was, I honestly can't remember. Some people just want to have as much as a factory look as possible with the added protection. They may not use their rigs offroad as much as the next guy, if at all. I dunno.

    I am down for anything but summer actually. Fall is really beautiful here, whereas I can't do anything outside in the spring...

    If I voted it would be for March/April.

    I will try to go no matter what, so I felt my vote doesn't really matter.

    I chose fall because:

    Spring: Florida meet
    Summer: Possible Yellowstone camping trip as discussed earlier on this thread
    Fall: Big Bend

    Oooh. Good point.
    I just carry spare tools. I am only running 2 inches of lift and 32 inch tires. I take the gentle and thought out approach, so I try to not put myself in the position to break anything. I regularly check fluids, bushings, and boots. I am also very conservative about maintenance intervals. I always carry extra oil and water.


    ... That reminds me... I am dragging around the original spare, should maybe replace it.

    265/75-16 so 31.6" or whatever the conversion is.
