    In her case it sounds like that’s what it did and bent the frame.

    That is pretty crazy.
    Do you think that the angled hoop on the front had some effect?
    It looks like it sticks out ahead of the actual bumper.


    I’m guessing that any bumper and sliders will alter the way the crumple zones are supposed to work.



    The few tacos I’ve seen with the ARB fronts look awful, they look out of proportion imo.

    The picture you posted was the truck that was totaled? That’s not a c4 bumper that’s a Lil B’s fabrication bumper.

    All the things!
    No, the truck with the C4 was totaled. She then posted a picture of a truck with a Lil B bumper, that she's interested in. Not her truck.

    Looks nice!
    I keep wavering on plate or hybrid.

    There’s a few mfgs that are close enough to drive to and save the shipping costs.
