    • Could anyone who has the cross member delete answer how they like it?
    • Does it interfere with a dif drop?
    • Also when installing it how easy is it to paint every surface properly?

    Ordered 11/21/24, got it at my house on Friday (1/31/25) last week, forgot to update TW fam. Painted with Steel It, not doing the crossmember delete, at least not yet. Installed it on Saturday and buttoned up all the intricacies on Sunday. SS3 and SSC2 are mounted directly to the top tube, just drilled a hole and tapped it for an M6 bolt, holding great.

    Beautiful bumper, I say that as I've already got plans to mod it :rofl:

    Jumping straight to glamour shots:

    And first mod to it is complete. Bullbar, but done better than how C4 does it (obviously no longer bolt on wings with this one, well I guess you still can unbolt and slide out, whatever lol), but after seeing how they're mounted, they were never going to be easy to change out anyways. Next will be extending the top tubes to the end of the fender.

    Side wings lengthened today, far from perfect but they're relatively smooth. I kept C4's nice end caps lol.

    @K9tacoma that looks real good, props on the welds. However, from the pics it looks like the first time you you go off road you will get into it with your tire. Do you do much off roading? Serious question, it's fine if you don't not an ego thing. I just see it getting into the tire fairly easily.

    I do, but a lot more soft roading than anything. It still sits behind the fender flare, and I never rubbed on the plastic factory bumper I cut off in that area so I think I'm fine. It sticks out less than what I cut off the truck. I only have 275/70/17 tires though, I'd bet bigger tires you wouldn't want to extend them as much as I did. I can always cut it down if I end up hitting it with the tire, it was not difficult to extend them.

    Wings have been successfully reworked, lengthened, and bull bar added. Rock runner 2.0 is complete!

    Would love to do this to my rear RR bumper. Or if I could find someone to make new sides completely to line up with the flare.

    1. I love it. Would definitely do it again because it has a nice and tucked look to it.
    2. No idea on a diff drop.
    3. Skid plate and crossmember itself I had powder coated. Very easy to spray paint any exposed metal after the original crossmember is removed.
