    I'm tempted to just Fab a center hoop and have someone weld it on for me, the bumper is definitely missing that style aspect

    To me ARB and prerunner bar bumpers look the best. :anonymous:

    The ARBs give it that safari look and I dig a sweet safari rig!

    Definitely wouldn't be hard to do at all! Just get some tubing and start cutting, bending, grind, and weld.

    @fatfurious2 and @Lots2Learn58 rigs definitely influenced mine, and made the wife want an RTT, so it's not all bad!

    Luckily I only have one more of these mid shifts before I rotate back to days, and then it'll be another month before I'm back to mids. I enjoy how lax it is, but the sleep thing kills me.

    By the way I reset the VSC yesterday and on the way to work last night tried some quick manuevers to try to get it to kick on but it wouldnt. Hopefully its good to go now. Still get the loud noise when hanging a turn though. Gonna try air adjustment today and probably order some spacers.

    Yeah, I feel the same way (grouchy and tired). It's not fun.

    Glad to hear that it seems to have solved the traction control issue! Don't order spacers to reduce rubbing though, as pushing the tire out will actually make it worse (unless you're rubbing on suspension components). Look at these quotes, as this is the most common place to rub and is also the easiest to fix. A fresh razor blade and a couple minutes and you're done.

    I second this. Imo ARB makes one of the best looking front bumper and makes @inesshell 's rig so epic!

    I checked those spots and everywhere else that I could think of and there is no evidence of rubbing. May just trim those sections anyways and see if it helps. Also just checked my air pressure and they had it at 48-50 all around. I dropped it to 36 for now, gonna see how it feels and wait to make anymore adjustments till I can get some chalk.

    You guys were really busy after I fell off the grid yesterday. Wives, bumpers, tires, Coors, RTT, bad influences ect. I am all caught up.

    We could save on shipping! I'm sure you could ask him to take that off if you didn't want it
