I'm close to pulling the trigger on Hammer Hangers, but I actually like DK's cross-brace design better. Not sure if the actual hangers are better/worse/same though.

 

That crossbar looks great if you dont have a trailer hitch or aftermarket bumper

 

Looks to be an aftermarket bumper on the truck in the photos. No hitch though.

 

Have you considered DRT’s?

 

Alot of bumpers and the oem hitch use these 5 bolts on each side. There is a little piece of angle on the bottom of the frame to make up the bottom 2

 

Didn't even know they existed, until now. I also like that their crossbar ties into the frame as well.

 

My vote is for hammer hangers. Being on the east coast you will probably have them in a few days. Says 9 weeks for production on dirt kings site.

 

You're saying that the 2 bolts on the crossbar plate, will be interfering with the bumper/hitch mounting?

 

Correct, take a peek under the back of your truck and you will see what I am talking about (if you have an oem hitch)

 

I put it on last year- noticeable difference for sure. And the welds are suuuper clean!

 

I actually ordered mine July 3rd and received them July 24th I believe so pretty quick turnaround

 

So I just installed these on my truck with icon RXT’s. They ride super, super well. Like night and day difference over stock. I didn’t do the cross brace since I’m going to fab my own. If you choose rxt’s be aware you’re going to need a washer for the shackle to fill in the gap. Probably about 1/8th. Probably made for deavers… anyways so worth it and slightly cheaper than the others with cross bar. They’re all going to perform the same anyways
