    I've searched but did not see anything on this company or their products here. I came across this company while searching craigslist. Question is has anyone ever dealt with this company, installed/ used their products (I'm mainly interested in the winch mount bumper), and if so what are your thoughts and reviews? Looks like it mounts with two bolts on each side on L brackets, seems inadequate, unless it's gusseted somehow??

    The hidden winch bumper? I want one and plan on buying. Just haven't saved up for it just yet. But from what I've been told by a few people it's an excellent bumper. They also recommended buying this from relentless fabrications so that it holds better.

    Good to know. I don't want to a steel bumper, not a fan yet. I want the stock look and I know undercover makes one that appears to sit higher up in the bumper. But this one sits right in the lower portion of the bumper, all you lose is that lower plastic which is replaced with steel.

    Yep! Same reasons I want one too! And I agree with the stock look. Plus my truck barely fits in my garage now if I get a bigger bumper it won't fit for sure.
    I have also thought about adding the AVID bumper guard along with the USOffroad hidden winch bumper just to keep some protection up there

    I was snooping around on another thread, come across this member. I'm grilling him about it now. Love the look of it though. Ditto on the garage.
