    I'm very interested in this bumper, but looking for an honest response to what the benefits are of going with a higher price bumper with similar design? I've always heard that you get what you pay for. I know some bumpers have additional reinforcements on the frame, i'm wondering what this one is missing that others have?

    Have a couple questions.

    1. Do the 3/4" shackle points pass through, full thickness, to the frame mounting points?

    2. How thick is the plate that mounts to the frame?

    3. Will the Rigid TRD PRO LED's work in the light cutouts?


    Cheers,

    Looks like any 5-6” bracket mount style lights could be rigged up easily.

    My concern would be along the lines of the gage of material used to fab up the bumper. It looks great, but haven’t come across any numbers regarding thickness in certain areas. With Just the eye test, it doesn’t look that thick, possibly why it’s so lightweight. If that indeed is the case, at the price point this would be a great option for those guys who that like the look, but don’t really wheel. Shipped, and powder coated from Cali to the east coast is a great deal.

    Lighting brand compatibility isn’t a deal breaker for me, I’m not one of those sponsored Instagram guys. I’m just a guy new to the scene and likes to wheel.

    Definitely staying tuned for the detailed specs on this bumper
