    Makes sense, your bumper looks like All Pro too. That’s one of my top two. Though I’ll likely not ever get bumpers. I have yet to need one. Though I do WANT one...

    They are nice but a bit pricey. Skid plates are also all pro. I feel better knowing I have some kind of protection just in case

    Mine too is my daily driver. I’ve spent several years slowly building it up as needed. Ive been careful with it when I’m going out wheeling. But I’ve also been strategic with my upgrades. UCA’s with uniballs. (Easy to service, and strong AF) Trans cooler, (because I like my tranny). I’ve had buddy’s who go to Moab with me, save me cash by being realistic with me about needing and wanting. It’s hard, because I WANT bumpers.

    The point is, even though she’s my daily driver, I know I’ll need a front bumper when I rip it off the truck on a trail. :thumbsup:

    Edit: Put me back in my 20’s with no kids and mortgage, I’d have all the shit.. :rofl:

    Same here. Slow ass build. Daily driver. I bought the bumper a while back after a fender bender. Needed a new one, so I pulled the trigger on this one

    Ha! I've had some close calls where I've avoided hitting someone (their fault), then thought right after, man just a little harmless tap would have been all i needed for a free bumper, and a free lesson for a moronic driver. :facepalm: Not that that is in ANY way safe or a good idea...just an after thought.

    You can greatly improve the stock lights with an upgraded wiring harness. And of course, now I can't find a link to any. Essentially, you replace the wimpy stock wiring with a bigger gauge wired from the headlights through a relay to the battery. The relay is activated by the stock headlight wiring when you turn the lights on at the stalk. Made a huge difference over stock for me.

    If you can find a link, I'd be in for that.
