    I know a lot of companies make the slimline bumper such as SOS, sso and c4. The one that goes in the middle. But they’re all a good two months away and I was looking at this Warn bumper that seems to be almost the same and I can get it in a week time which is great and same price.

    Seems to be a little more bigger and beefier and the hoop goes more up on the grill which I love. But there’s not a lot of information on this bumper so I’m wanting to know if anyone that actually has it can give me some information on how they like it!!! I was told that it attaches to the frame and the brackets are really not that heavy duty so you don’t want to use this bumper to pull anyone. But I didn’t know if they sold heavy duty brackets or if I could make some custom heavy duty brackets in case I do need to pull someone out.

    If anyone could help me out and maybe take pictures of this bumper for me that would be awesome. Thank you

    That looks absolutely amazing. Thank you so much. I was told the way it attaches to the frame, the brackets are a little flimsy. Can you give some insight on that? Is there anyway The c4 updated beakers would fit? I just want to be able to use the D rings to pull someone out if I ever get stuck

    It uses the six bolt studs that attach to the frame after taking off the aluminum crash gaurd. You can use the Drings no problem

    Thank you for that. I’m going to have to see if I can buy the upgraded brackets from C4 so I know it’s heavy duty lol

    I know there is already a designated thread for this bumper but that hasn’t seem to be a lot of action in it. Just wanting to know if anyone actually has this bumper and how beefy is it? I just want to know if I were to hit a tree or someone were to back Into me going super slow, is this Bumper going to be able to take the hit and not break it? They say it’s made in the United States but I just don’t want it to feel cheap metal if you know what I mean

    I like this bumper a lot, but I do worry about the bull bar interfering with the TSS in a Pro Grille.

    Has that potential issue been resolved yet?

    As @paleh0rse stated, the problem is it doesn’t seem to be compatible with the TSS. Otherwise, it is an awesome choice because no cutting is required.

    That was my concern. Seems the hoop sits right in front of the radar. I wish they would make one without the hoop.

    I don’t think you can use the upgraded c4 brackets with this? Because I’m wondering the same thing but I think it seems like the upgraded brackets on the c4 work with this bumper. When I was looking at the pictures, it seemed like this bumper didn’t have enough of holes to match up. But then again I’m probably going to get this bumper and then have an off-road company custom make some heavy duty brackets just in case. I don’t think you should be too hard

    Anyone have this Warn with a TRD slidplate? Wondering if there’s any interference underneath?
