    Do scratched skids and sliders really count as trail damage? That's what they're there for, after all.

    Haha I was being sarcastic. That was my way of saying I had no trail damage.

    I am pretty sure I am going with the Brute Force plate bumper. I was leaning towards the Pelfreybilt but the mounting points on the Brute Force look a little more stout. Before I left Rausch I was able to get the bolt on the fender back throught, but the lower bracket is pretty much trashed.

    That's good and I'm sure you'd be happy with either one of those bumpers.

    I'm pretty impressed with the Brute Force hybrid. I tagged a tree pretty good on 13b with the drivers side tube and it didn't budge.

    Even though I have seen a lot of complaints on here about him, it seems every bumper I seen built by him is top notch. But in the end I can careless if he is a bad bussness man, all that matters is the workmanship of the products he builds.

    From what I understand he's come back from his issues and running pretty smoothly now. Don't think you'd be disappointed with either brute force or pelfreybilt

    yeah they use thinner (I think 10 gauge) on the sides to save on weight.

    Billy makes a great product... Eventually. If you approach it that way, and don't buy any accessories, you'll be happy

    I landed my front diff drain plug right on a rock and loosened it. That's where the diff fluid was coming from Saturday evening.
