    Thanks for the heads up, I would not have ever even thought about that. Definitely would not want to have to worry about that.

    Billy, Do your bumpers have the above mentioned bracing?

    If the bumper doesn't have anything impeding the use of the brackets I showed, you may be able to purchase the brackets from Relentless or Elite.

    I still wouldn't buy one that doesn't include bracing, but I didn't :D

    Seems worth the extra coin for peace of mind. Please include that in the price quote when you get to it. And thanks for being so willing to work with me on the slight modifications. I realize you could have just as easily told me that if I dont like your bumper I dont have to buy it.

    And thanks again to you XXXX, I would much rather have and not need, then need and not have.

    I'm not sure that mine will ever be complete. There is always a new mod to be done.

    I'm up to five digits at this point, and I still have gears, winch, OBA, front locker, crawlbox, shackle flip, traction bar, and quite a bit of electrical stuff to do.

    :(


    Best advice is to just not keep track.
