    Not too pleased with the Addicted bumper so far. No tracking number, missing hardware, missing hardware not reshipped promptly, NONE of the holes lined up, the XRC synthetic fairlead has to be mounted upside down, and interferes with the winch mounting so pretty much every hole has to be slotted :mad:. I can understand a couple holes not lining up, but dammit.

    Ball joint spacers and lift blocks, am I doing it right?
    I had some minor issues with my trail-gear bumper bolting up too. I think mine was from the new energy suspension body bushings(these bushing rock, they take a ton of felt vibration out of the truck). We have to remember when companies build bumpers they build them on 25 year old worn out vehicles, worn bushings and tweaked parts. Once ones done they build a jig to manufacture from. It's not like a brand new square and perfect new truck.
    Not trying to make excuses, but I'm sure they'll make it right.

    The fair lead is another story and I can't believe more people don't complain about it. Smitty builts design simple will not work with addicted or trail gear bumpers, Jeep bumpers may be another story. I ended up cutting the top of mine off by half an inch so I didn't have to mount it upside down.

    You can see the fair lead chop in this pic, doesn't look bad at all.

    They don't use trail gear's winch mount anymore.

    And its not really their fault about the fairlead. I was just pissed off about everything else. My dremel died on me, etc.

    I took it out to URE today with some t4r members and I had a blast. We ran everything but Daniel. It was a little slick but nobody needed a pull.
