    Looks awesome!! I have been eyeballing this bumper for a few weeks now. Been waiting for a good picture of it like you posted. I plan to do the weld it yourself version. How was the install? Come with instructions or measurements for the cuts? Looks super good! I wanna see it with the new lights mounted when you get them.

    Hi, thanks. The install is fairly easy. Just need to unbolt and cut. This is the guide I used for prepping the truck:

    https://youtu.be/IV_p_4jidW4

    I also used this for the edge left after the cut:

    Edge Trim Black Small, Fits Edge 1/16 to 1/8 Inch, Length 10 Feet (3.05 Meter)
    $13 Edge Trim Black Small, Fits Edge 1/16 to 1/8", Length 10 Feet (3.05 Meter)

    please let me know if you have any questions. Happy to help. I think this is the best looking, and low profile bumper available. Enjoy.

    Saw you in the FL Classified and couldn't help but recognize the Namibia edition sticker. Spotted at SE Overland Expo in March!

    I love it. Great quality, great attention to detail. Everything lined up perfectly on the install. Solid protection, with light weight hybrid style.

    Hey man, truck looks great! I see you were rocking the Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLTs for a while in 295/75/r16...how did you like them? Did you ever test them out in snow? I'm looking to make the jump from 265s to 295s here soon and can't decide on tires. I'm between the coopers, toyo at3s and BFG KO2s.

    Also looks like you switched out tires earlier this year...how come?

    Hi, thanks. I really liked the AT3's. I decided to go with the STT Pro's as I wanted to move to a Mud Tire. The AT3's were great on-road as well as off-road. I did not have any experience with them in the snow, so I can't comment on their effectiveness there. They feel great on the road and are not loud. The only issue I had with them was getting them balanced. It took a couple of tries but once balanced I had no issue. I would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for a decent AT tire.

    I appreciate the input, yea I've been reading that people generally really like them. It's looking like I might have to pull the trigger on these.

    That's awesome man. Good luck with the build. I am still super happy with it. I have a winch and lights mounted in it now, and everything fits perfectly. Enjoy.

    Do you have any pictures of the top bumper? I wanted to see if there was enough room to add lights to the plate that may or may not be there.
