    Seems odd, as the un-sprung weight wouldn't tear the strap like that. Maybe just a bad strap :notsure:

    Only way I see it happening is if something put a small tear in it and then when the suspension drooped out it tore all the way across.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Limit straps are a consumable, just like bushings, uniballs, and springs. At some point they wear out and it's time for new ones.

    Hahaha I like that ” Do not want”
    but chains r much stronger and won't stretch at all. U can stretch them to whatever length u want but u would have to buy a chain stretcher and those can be expensive . . . . . .

    Nice design!

    If you make one for Long Beds as well as one that has a tire carrier that doesn't require cutting the bed for the tire carrier you'd be set :cool:

    Actually i shipped a bumper to Rhode Island for 180 to the customers front door. The bed cage weights a bit more but probably under 300 to ship on a pallet.
