    It does look good but they were just a little too bulky for my taste

    I prefer full hoops and want to go with that for my truck. I love the look of @Mademan925 bumper, Turned a single hoop bumper into a full hoop bumper. upload_2017-3-31_13-38-59.jpg

    Had custom full hoops built on mine - more confidence running through overgrown trails

    if it was a 3rd gen i would say no hoops because it might mess up tranny.

    being that it is a 2nd gen i would go double...balances the stance

    I have an ARB, a single hoop would make working on the front end much easier

    Gives a spot to wrap the winch cable fro multiple pulls. Easier to work too. And anything that will break a headlight is just as likely to bend the unsupported hoop anyways.

    Full hoops. If you live in any kind of dense Forresty area those friggin trees like to jump out of nowhere. I've broken a lot of headlight housings before I got my bumper

    I really like the looks of single hoops, but its a truck after all, so go with what best suits what you plan to use it for. All things equal I'd go single.

    I say single hoop. Just my opinion, but the full hoops look like someone tried to retrofit a part that doesn't fit the vehicle. Way too big and quite tacky. Again...just an opinion and I'm sure they're pretty useful for wheeling.
