    Get a fabbed 9" housing, a nodular 3rd member and 35 spline axles. You'll just keep having to fix broken shit all the time otherwise especially running 37"s.

    I think it's just modified glassworks.

    Next question, how well do these hold bed racks? Mine rests heavily on the bed rail

    Mine does pretty well with my Bestop. Idk how much heavier the bed racks are. I def would not mount a tire in the rack unless you add some serious reinforcements some how.

    35" spare, hilift + + +... figure it plus cargo easy 150. Add bikes and kayaks, or lumber and im in the 300 + pound range.

    Hmmm not sure what else would give me more coverage and match what i plan on doing with the front

    Yah at that point I'd get something that mounts completely different. Maybe utilize the bed bolts or something.

    ...too much shit to list.
    I'm digging the bumper in terms of design. But i gotta ask. Why fork over the money for something like that...and then do it with mild steal? It's clearly HREW...and the seam is outside the bends. :confused::confused::confused:

    Thats mild man, I didn't want to be the asshole to point it out. And like Jason said having the seam on the outside of the bend is really rookie.

    Not to be the bearer of bad news, but that distinctive dark seam means it's mild. Stick your finger inside the tube and you'll feel it.

    DOM isn't shiny either unless you polish the fuck out of it. It's almost black. So the shiny tubing with the obvious weld line shows it's mild without a doubt
