    Installed Body Armor bumper and Smittybilt winch today. Easy install overall but a bit of an adventure to mount the bumper with winch installed by yourself. But doable.

    The shop that installed the bumper for me also installed the light bar. I had them buy it and they included it in the cost of the labor install. I think it was about $200 and is like...7000 lumens? i know it's so bright it lights up my entire culdesac.

    Ooof! It's all that winch cable metal. I had the same setup last year but synthetic line. Thought it was pretty easy to install too. Just more of a nail biter cutting the truck, ha.

    I did mine in the driveway by myself. I just put the assembled bumper and winch on a jack and rolled it into place. Easy.

    As for lights, I used @CaliRaisedLed lights on pretty much my entire truck.

    Cutting was easier than I expected. I actually did not remove the bumper to do it.
