    A little late to the party but THIS is what the offroad community is about, mutual respect. We can appreciate what each and every company is doing and has to offer, no need to bad mouth one another there is room in this industry for everyone.

    I didn't see the context for the quoted post but have a really good guess. The mutual respect you guys have though is what I've come to enjoy about the community.

    Friendly competition is the bomb. It pushes everybody to keep raising the bar. It’s when you think you rose the bar so much that nobody can touch you that’s the problem. And that’s exactly the mentality that was displayed.

    None taken. I just want to be able to sell it. That line is my under cut. Not doing the over fender as much. Just want to konw if I can run it while I finish up the cab mount relocate and get to pull it off to sell it. I want to end up with something else. But don't feel I could sell one cut for 35's

    Do you have any more pics? I was looking under it last night and was thinking the same weight loss for mine. What did the side support do? And where the tube comes down? Did it do well after?

    I had already chopped off the front crossmember, so a bit of that part is missing from the bumper, too. It cleared the tires and I feel it looked as good as an ARB could look. I had to trim the hoops on the backside of the bumper where they come through. There’s some bracing back there that got cut and I folded it over and welded it to the wing for a little extra strength. These may help-

    Oh I saw those post for sure. I get being proud of what you make but it sounded very delusional and pretty much turned me away. Also seemed like they didn't want to hear negative feedback on said product as well which is a big no no in my eyes. Glad we have multiple options when it comes to kits for our trucks. Just means extra reading for me to decide what works best for my needs.

    For everyone that has both the LT kit and SUA on their truck, which one would you pick if you could only have one? I realize that makes a pretty broad answer because everyone uses their truck differently but I am curious.

    Totally agree. This should be first on any LT list unless you plan on linking it. Then go straight to links. Don’t waste money sneaking up on LT. Figure out what your end goal is early. You will save a ton in the long run.

    I second this, go big or go home the first time. But definitely SUA before front. You are almost guaranteed to get a lot more out of your truck fixing that up travel and OEM shackle garbage in the back first.
