    Install was the same so no extra cutting. But I did weld the new plate on so there was a lot of grinding to blend the metals

    Anyone know if RCI skids will work with CBI's sliders for Gen 3 DCSB?

    Getting ready to pull the trigger on CBI T3 front bumper with full hoops.

    What is the weight of the aluminum full hoop? Their website says 130lbs for steel

    Starting to lean towards getting an aluminum one now.

    Pelfreybilt lists their full hoop aluminum as 70# I assume they're fairly similar. If you go steel you'll definitely want upgraded suspension if you haven't already.

    I had steel and switch to the aluminum on mine to lighten things up a little. The aluminum has been great

    New aluminum bumper arrived!!! 9 weeks from the time I ordered until it arrived for anyone wondering.

    On a side note; will my TRD skid work with this bumper or will I need a new skid?

    It’s some sort of marking they made on it with a sharpie. It’s getting powdercoated anyway. The bumper actually arrived quicker than I expected. Their website said 12+ weeks for the aluminum full hoop.

    Headed over to Idaho Falls last week to install this puppy. Was a fun (and cold!) trip that was "on the way" to The Maze for us. Very happy with the bumper, sure to get years of good use. Lots more pics in the story.

    Just picked up a 20" baja designs onx6 light bar. Wondering if I'll need to pull the front bumper off to install the new light bar or can i just pull the grille/shroud off?

    Always in process
    How are you all trimming the front fender liners to fit in to the CBI bumpers? I have my new bumper on the way and just want to get some ideas of how to best do the fenders
