    Yes it is much higher than stock, however mine is a bit different from the standard production bumpers. More details on that when it's finished. :D

    Kevin, I'm sure you'll be adding a tire gate so a few changes you should make. Add an additional arm/brace to the left side. You only have one on mine (on the right) and it causes vibrations. Also, move the arm over (towards the middle) a couple inches if you plan on mounting anything bigger than a 33" tire back there. Anything bigger covers up the tail light.

    I'll accept one free bumper in exchange. I see you're using the duallies in your bumper, as well. Good choice.

    haha I'll let you claim it as a first. I didn't plan on them but since the bumper showed up with holes I had to fill them. I couldn't pass up the deal on 4wp. I'm sure that's where you got yours from as well. Did you box your holes up for the light or just left them as cut out? Mine currently are not boxed in but I think I might box them in to prevent water getting in the bumper.

    The ones he typically has on there won't work. You'll have to cut that square tube out and then they'll fit.

    Mine had his typical light cut out as well. I had to cut them out to fit them. I will be welding on side plates to fill the gap.

    One more thing Kevin, add some chain loops to the hitch.

    Well since I was actually building the bumper to fit them mines a bit different. It was still a total pain to get them in there right though. I just wish they had a wider light spread.

    I agree, they're bright but they're not really fog/flood lights. They're more spot than anything.

    Yea I am impressed with the output, but for backup lights they don't exactly fit the bill perfectly. I'd have to say the normal lights I use, while not as cool, well built, or bling as these, do a better job as backup lights.

    Yes. They actually do an awesome job as backup lights. Good wide spread of light just like you want.
