##Southern Style OffRoad GROUP BUY 2/2017##

Any details on the cube lights yet?

 

What exactly are these pod lights? Anyone have details?

 

I believe they are the little cube lights on the corners of the hood as posted in the original SSO post. Currently unsure of the make/model...

 

Nope only 15% - The next 5% will be refunded on 3/1

 

I plan on joining the group buy just as soon as I can figure out configuration. (to paint myself or not/access holes or not for winch/fitment of m8000s/will I need a lift for sag)
Anybody?

 

It's going to add anywhere from 55 to 110 pounds depending on if you install a winch or not.

Have a 200 buddy stand on your bumper and see what it looks like.

 

Oh i'll be fine with that, we got loaders/forklifts/car lifts/ big guys around. I should have clarified that I meant lift kit/stiffer springs.

 

200lbs buddy is a good idea, as the smittybilt x20 weighs in at 99lbs. So up to 170lbs depending on configuration.

 

oh whoops, I totally read that wrong. my bad.

 

it barely moved when I got on it (180lbs) so I think i'll be fine with the m8000s.

 

I decided if I find out the m8000s doesnt fit that i'll get the zeon. So on that note, 2 more to go until free cube lights!!

 

Ready for the next 2 to buy, who doesnt love/want FREE pod lights!

 

I believe that the m8 will fit but you need to cut out extra factory bracing

 

Ok so somebody sell me....why is this bumper better than the C4?

 

Well if you cant see by looking at it, and how every line flows so well with the truck, then... Maybe...
Aesthetics are huge to me, and SSO nailed it.

 

The bumper is 55lbs

 

yea, i just went over to c4's web site and saw their hybrid style bumper. it's not as sexy as the SSO, plus it doesn't look like they've integrated parking sonar. it's like what macdadmorgan said... the design of the hybrid flows extremely well.

 

Agree.. VERY CLEAN, the bends line up with remaining bumper nicely. Almost like it's a factory option.

The bumper also weighs a third less - 75lbs vs 55lbs.

The sensor option.

20% off & close to free cube lights

C4 & SOS where close 2nd for me!

 

The c4 is a nice looking bumper along with the SOS but I dont feel they are as nice as the SSO. I prefer this bumper over the c4 for a couple reasons:
1. The c4 is ~20lbs heavier.(c4=75lbs, SSO=55lbs, No clue on the SOS weight)
2. The c4 doesnt follow the original lines of the truck as well as the SSO does.(goes up to the grill instead of just replace the lower "chin" on the bumper. The SOS is closer in style with the lines of the bumpers)
3. No parking sonar option.(if you want it)
4. C4 requires more cutting of the stock bumper(Since it doesnt follow the lines of the truck, SOS seems to be about the same cutting)

If you cant see the difference you may have a different taste in styling than I do. As I said the c4 is a nice looking bumper, the the SSO is just a much more appealing design to me even though they are both similar.

 

Good point on the cutting of the bumper. The SSO seems to cut tight to the seam. And much less than the others.
