2016 SSO Slimline Bumper

If the winch and light bar will fit

 

Depending on the winch, definitely (the X20 10k synthetic fits perfectly, likely the equivalent warn does as well). Can't speak for lightbar though, sorry.

 

K, thanks!

 

I contacted Cali Raised with this question as I am thinking of mounting their behind the grille light bar. They seem to think it will fit. I think it might be a little tight with the winch sitting pretty close to the lower grille. I'm hesitant to order without knowing for sure.

 

Maybe if somebody has the light bar they could post a pic looking down between the grill and radiator. I'd think it'd be easy to determine based off mounting locations?

 

Are there any plans to offer this in aluminium? Or does any know of another aluminium 'low profile' bumper?

 

Taco Jedis,

I'm picking up my 2017 TRD OR DCLB (Quicksand) at the end of the month and have an SSO slimline on order that I plan on installing in conjunction with a Warn Zeon 10-S. My question to y'all that have already done this build (and my apologies if this has already been answered and I missed it), but am I going to have any issues running that setup on the stock suspension? I do plan on getting a lift at some point in the not too distant future and am wondering if I'd be better off waiting to do both at the same time.

Also - this is my first post on the forums...so thanks to all of y'all on here - already learning tons.

Cheers,

-Charlie

 

It will squat a tad, and you will feel the weight in the nose. But I drove that way for a week or so and it was fine.

 

I'm following this because that is my plan. It might be a few months until I decide on a lift.

 

Like said before it will sink just a bit. If your planning on keeping stock suspension you could add something like this. Fairly easy install and would also help level your truck off.

 

Gents,

Thanks for the input....I'm leaning towards the Old Man Emu setup with the heavy (2886?) coils. Intended use is mostly on-road, but with enough support to offset the winch/bumper and give the truck a little more clearance and better ride for the times when I'm off road. Other option in my price range is an Icon Stage 2.

Am I in the ballpark with either of those two to pair up with the SSO slimline and Zeon 10-S?

I had to crank my Icon coilovers up quite a bit to offset the weight of the bumper and winch, and probably won't be able to level. I may end up getting the longer 700lb springs from Icon instead so the coilovers aren't maxed out.

B.

 

I ended up going with an Icon Stage 2...and sticking with the 650 lb. springs for now. From reading other threads it sounds like the folks at Icon only recommend the 700 lb. ones for a full size steel bumper+winch. May end up swapping to the 700s after a while, depending on the ride.

 

Awesome! This install looks great. Thanks for the business!

 

For those of y'all that have this bumper...is there somewhere on it that can serve as a jack point for a Hi-Lift? I'm thinking the hoop would be an option, but would worry about over stressing the welds.

 

I had this same question. I'm thinking of seeing if this will work attached to the bottom of the bumper.

Heads up to those considering buying one soon. Black Friday Deal should be popping up soon on their website. I ordered today and got $184 off!

 

Yep...that would probably do the trick - either to the bottom of the bumper or to one of the shackles. Thanks for the tip.

 

did you use a coupon code?

 

Sorry for delay. I just called them and Gwen set me up.
