    Steel is coming first. After that, maybe a non-swingout compatible high clearance version? Loading an aluminum bumper up with dual swingouts and a bunch of gear gets complicated from a material and engineering standpoint, so we'll see.

    Hey look, there's a thing I need in my life. Any idea what the premium will be vs the steel?

    Still working that out. Looking like a $500-$600 premium by the time we deal with material and labor.

    So, your steel bumper weight in at 87.5 lbs? It's on my shortlist of front bumpers I want to purchase. Although, I could definitely hold on for the beer can material.
