    I have the same front bumper with a WARN M8000 winch. I didn't realize that the all pro bumper was designed for a winch with synthetic line. What did you do to make that roller style fair lead work with that bumper?

    The roller style or the hawse fair lead? The roller style bolted right up to the stock mounting holes in the all pro bumper. As did the TJM aluminium fair lead.

    Did you have to drill the roller fair lead for yours to fit?

    I am talking about the roller style fair lead. The holes that come on the fair lead are in the middle and I had to shim the fair lead out with washers just to bolt it on. I haven't used it because it will just bend the brackets but I just did it to bolt the fair lead on so at least I had one. Will it work well even with all the pressure on it when winching if I drill holes lower for it to fit?

    Ooh...I'm pickin up what your puttin down. The fair lead that I used had 2 different mounting locations drilled in it when I bought it. The 2 holes that I used were in fact lower than centre of the fair lead, so yes... The fair lead sat higher allowing it to clear the bottom tube of the bumper. Believe it or not I actually found the fair lead at princess auto here in Canada. Do you guys have something similar in the states?

    Hope that helps. Could you red rill holes lower on the fair lead? Or just switch to synthetic line and a hawse style lead all together haha?

    Well I want to switch to a synthetic line and hawse fair lead but funds are kind of tight right now as I just dropped 5k on the truck this past month. I will be taking the fair lead off and drilling holes lower on the fair lead to make it fit.

    Took the mountain bike out today and met up with the CT4WD group that were out for their monthly run. Got to ride it down the mountain then got a pinch flat in 2 different spots. I then proceeded to ride shotgun for the rest of the day:)

    I've been busy with work and helping out with the flood situation we had up here in southern Alberta, but still managed to get out and have some fun. These ledges are much larger in person and a lot more challenging than they look in the picture. It was a blast!

    Well considering they are for a JK they actually aren't that bad. They fit a little loose, but with being loose they sit deeper into the boulsters of the seats. And their heavy duty to haha. No tearing these puppeies

    looks way better painted around the headlights and rear bumper. that part around your headlights always bugged me.

    we'll dominate those ledges some time this year.

    The old smittybilt ones were made bad yes. They had strings holding the sides together. It's what I had before these. But I can assure you, if you can rip these I'm sure smittybilt will give you your money haha. The buckles are tough and big
