    I think if your bumper works with the factory skid, any of the big name skid suppliers that offer a plate bolting to the same location should work. Bud built and rat come to mind. Did you ryno contact you? That's what I ended up with, and fit/ quality was great! Haven't given it a thorough bashing yet, but I have no doubts it will hold up just fine.

    Trucks in the shop again.....I've had nothing but HELL out of my bumper! Now it's going to cost me $300 more dollars to get it fixed to mount up properly on my truck! :mad:

    They have to pretty much build me new brackets for my truck.....the ones that are on there won't line up with my frame and you can't get all the bolts to go in....more than a 1/2" off on the front brackets and side brackets....nothing but a damn headache......and on top of that when I received my bumper there were only 2 holes drilled to mount the winch when there should have been 4.....so I had to use a cutting torch to make the other holes since you can't fit a drill inside there to drill new ones....and to add to this some more, when it arrived at fastenal it was scratched to hell and back so I had to get a new powder coating job on the bumper (3PL) has sent me a check for that but that's beside the point.....so now I'm going to have to re powder coat it again due to them have to cut and re weld my front brackets :mad:
