    Hey guys for you that have the arb bumper, how do you find getting your hands in the hole to realease the free wheel? I've indexed the head according to ARB, but damn I can't seem to get my mitts in there to switch it to freewheel or back again for that matter. Have you guys noticed the same thing??BTW I'm running the M8000 Warn.

    Yes I put it at 72 degrees as per arb manual. I can only index my warn every other hole. The next spot puts me with the lever to close to front of bumper.

    Does anyone have a Body Armor front bumper on a 2013? Any pictures?

    There's a comment on Amazon that it looks crappy on 2012's and newer?

    "It will bolt to the frame, but the lines on the 2012 and newer truck do not line up good with this bumper. The hood bumper and headlights are different on the 12 and newer so this bumper would fit crappy."

    I really like the bumper and the price...

    I love mine, easy to get to the winch freewheel too. The only thing would change Is the center section (Winchmount) should be thicker metaI IMHO . It Looks Awesome, and not as heavy as other bumpers.

    Hahaha actually the only issue I had was with the free spool lever after I rotated the housing to get the lever accessible from the top. It was not closing all the way so we got my buddies band saw and hacked the lever in half. Now it clears perfectly.
