    @christian06 so now, I realize you may not be able to answer this question, but, would this setup work with an aftermarket high clearer bumper?

    I cant be certain as I have very little experience with said bumpers,
    That being said, the dampener and dampener bracket tuck in very nicely and the plastic piece that's there has to be trimmed alittle as the dampener pokes through it alittle, I would guess that it would work, 3rd gens have it and those guys put all sorts of bumpers on their rigs.
    But plz do your research, if in fact it doesn't work I'll be glad to refund your money for the kit, hope all that makes some sense, thx

    I got my hinge bracket the other day. Thanks @christian06. Quick question, is the smaller tab supposed to be aligned on a slight angle like this or perpendicular to the larger mounting surface? Just wanting to make sure before I dismantle to install. Thanks again.

    I have a damper bracket and and damper on the way. Is the damper threaded? I see no mention of nuts...only bolts.

    The dampener has studs that go through and hold it altogether, you will need those 2 nuts, I think they are 17mm

    Had 2 nuts in my random parts bin that fit perfectly. Everything fit perfectly with some cutting and now the tailgate works like a dream.

    Doesn't look like this was ever answered; but, yes it will. I have a Coastal Offroad bumper and fits fine. Actually,
    is more protected now with a bumper that won't bend...

    I haven't even attempted this mod yet. I've been to busy with interior stuff such as a new dash harness and adding accessories.
