Fab Fours bumper

Hmmm... I’m so new to this... suggestions for suspension?

 

Well man, that's sorta a loaded question. A lot of it depends on how you will use your truck and your budget. Answer that and I'll give you some suggestions.

 

It’s mainly for aesthetic honestly. Plus I kinda bummed up my bumper and am in the market for a new one. Why not go big? Am I right? My budget is minimal because of how expensive the bumper itself is @EatSleepTacos

 

I would go with bilstein 5100 on all 4 corners, OME 885 coils on the front and a single leaf AAL in the rear.

Here's the front.

The rear (you'll need two)

And the AAL This is pretty budget friendly and will ride like stock and support a bumper just fine.

 

Thanks a ton!

 

Why do you say that? I have had nothing but great service on great products from SOS.

 

I picked it up off Amazon 2 years ago for $1400. Looks like it's gone up since then

 

What it actually looks like on my truck

Myself and peers know the quality is (was?) garbage and had issues with following through on output. This was like 2+ years ago but I had don’t keep tabs on them. Never purchased anything from them nor have I checked on quality control recently. But a first impression is lasting. And this is just my lowly opinion on the internet so it can be taken with a grain of salt also. Just my 2 cents on bumpers. I have first hand experience with other companies that surpass expectations and would rather help provide them business, that’s all

 

Considering the fab fours can’t house a winch from the pic you provided, nor does it have shackle points I think you would be fine with it. Sure, anything can happen off-road, but it’s a little rare to see a guy take out a tree with their front bumper. I say if you like the aesthetic then go for it! I too would vouch for brute force fab over sos in the extent that brute force has solid internal gusseting. Not to say sos can’t habdle the job, but in an impact test my money would be on brute force. I say this and I have sos skids which I find adequate, although I should take them off and add some gussets before they get more fucked up.
