    Nice! I rammed the ambulance hall once. No damage at all to my ARB. :)

    Angle parking. Came in a little too much to the right and my far left tire was the only one to make contact with the concrete block that marks where your tires go. Right tire missed and I smoked it. Took a little stucco off. :p

    I was looking on the ARB site, what this stuff about airbag approved and crush rating stuff, how important is that? I am really new to the whole off roading and moddng scene. I just figured a bumper is a bumper.

    It's as important as you want it to be. It just means that ARB has tested it to comply with OEM specs for how and when the airbags go off. The ARB is the toughest bumper out there. Period. Others have better approach angles, but if you want your truck to double as a battering ram,ARB is the way to go.

    As long as I can plow through snow banks and play chicken with wildlife I don't need a great approach angle. I just want to win the battle against kamikaze moose.

    And sliders so when old men in Sebrings attempt the pit maneuver on you they'll smack those instead of your fenders and busting your bolt that holds your leaf springs.

    I know all about it. If I didn't take mine off, my MTZs would have done it for me.
