    If you buy a steel rear bumper that replaces the tow package you're only adding 20-30 pounds of weight. Rci steel is 20 pounds more than the stock setup

    I'm thinking as a whole, 20 lbs here, 40 lbs there, bamn! 200 lbs added versus not added those lbs by going all aluminum.

    Wait so how much does the tow package weigh? I'm really trying to keep weight down and would prefer an aluminum bumper as I need a swing out as well for my spare unless I want to take up some room in my bed (which I don't)

    What size tire are you running?
    I have a 34x10.5 under the back of mine and it fit fine.
    I have yet to weigh the factory hitch but would say its around 40-50 lbs.

    Subbing because these look awesome and may be exactly what I need since I don't do much off-roading to need a steel bumper. Hopefully you'll offer them in black too :fingerscrossed:
