    Posting this here as this forum gets more traffic than the armor forum.

    Anyone running the Fab Fours Rear Heavy Duty Bumper? Looking for some opinions on the specific bumper as well as how much sag, if any, I could expect in my rear suspension, the bumper weighs about 115 lbs.

    Want a new bumper and was just going to go with the Body Armor one off of Amazon because of the price but I couldn't get past the looks.

    Have someone of smaller stature stand on your rear bumper or sit on the tailgate.

    an aftermarket rear usually doesnt weight much more than the stocker with the hitch if you have the hitch, check out SOS Concepts, cheaper than those ones :thumbsup:

    I just replaced my hitch, one of the reason I am going with this bumper I want to keep my hitch as is.

    Will do, I am going to get an AAL in the rear shortly after I get the bumper, just not sure what coils I will need to keep my truck level, need to figure out if I want 2 or 2.5" up front, either way I will have the bumper first was just looking for some info out of boredom.
