    Looks like a tall bumber= more plateing= no holes cut out= heavy bitch. that'll make a coil or two flex. Only down side i see is that baby dick hoop and youre probably gonna catch it on alot of rocks.

    I'm supposed to pick up my Relentless Fab front plate bumper in the next 2 weeks! SOOOOO STOKED!!!! I've been waiting for... I believe like 9 months! I really hope that the bumper levels out my truck since it sits slightly higher in the front. But the bumper only weights 90 lbs. so I dono. What do you guys think about flipping the overload on the rear leaf pack???

    Some people say it gives you more lift if your running factory springs. it might give you more lift but it's gonna make the truck ride like a tank and youre not gonna get any flex unless your paking around a 4 wheeler.

    Wait so that is what this "ugly" bumper looks like? Looks pretty much just like any other plate bumper out there. I don't see anything wrong with it except the tiny ass hoop.
    Nope... For leafs there is pretty much just all pro's, dakar's and deavers. Brant has the deavers and they are starting to flatten out on him though...
    I don't think weight will be a huge issue. It is mostly made out of 1/8" steel. I'd be more worried about bending it if you hit some rocks too hard. Demello makes their bumpers out of 1/8" and bulhas mangled his when winching.

    Oh yeah, so you guys were talking about tire psi earlier. This orange suzuki is running 39.5x16.5" TRXUS STS's. They are at 4 psi and there is zero flex in them! haha I thought that was crazy!

    put those under my truck and they would look almost flat. takes weight to push a tire down.

    I know haha. Mine too. Although according to that psi equation I should run those at 16 psi for daily street driving. haha Granted they can only run at 35 psi max.

    Allpro expedition springs work well on 2nd gens. If your planning on heavy weight. That's the spring to get.

    You musts missed the thread that show an arb after the guy hit a deer at only 50 or so mph..totaled the bumper..
    Arbs are old and don't look any better I think..look good on land cruisers..that's about it. Or early toyotas

    hell, I let a lady friend drive part of a beach trail the other day and she skinny peddaled over a rock, the bounce from the landing was enough to scratch the plastic

    good thing it's flexible...
