    It’s a custom bumper he had made.

    Looks great OP. How was the process and how’s it go? What welding experience do you have?

    I may be absolutely crazy because I purchased the same bumper last week as well as a new MIG welder…I’ve never welded before. I’m not afraid of a challenge or talking things slowly.

    I grew up around welding all my life but honestly was never good at it. My dad who is a welder helped me with the welding. About 20 man hours total from start to install over 3 months (that's what happens when you have a 1 year old). That does not include the professional line-x I had done. Good luck!

    I just received my rear strike bumper from victory with the swing out. I installed the high clearance hitch receiver for more clearance. I will be ordering the other swing out for the driver side for dual jerry cans. Front bumper also in the works going with the C4.

    Honestly I didn't want to order from victory but this bumper is really well built & designed, no complaints here. The install was straight forward and all hardware was provided. Very different from their roof rack shit show. Not telling people about when drilling they can easily puncture their airbags if not using a drill stop was not a good business decision. Here are some pics sorry they are all sideways.

    Nice set up!! This rear bumper is perfect. I wonder if it’s possible to get just the swing out arm to add to a current bumper.

    Iron Cross rs front bumper. I cut some thick pieces of black polymer and plugged the fog light holes from the inside using black rtv silicone. We will see how that holds up. There appears to be no way to re-install the factory lower front plastic valances(?) and mud flaps inside the wheel wells. That seems like it would be the case with most of these aftermarket steel bumpers. Is there any cause to worry about additional water/ snow/ road debris getting up behind the bumper? Or am I overthinking this? Thanks.

    I'd like to preface this post by stating I'm not trying to be unreasonable with a company... just want to ask what others would do. Ordered a C4 bumper back in August and was given a finish date of 10/7. Obviously this was just yesterday. I'm not upset in the least about it not being ready on the exact date I was given. Just curious how long others would wait before following up and asking for an updated finish date. I'm thinking maybe a week?

    I wouldn't sweat it so soon after the deadline. I've waited 6 weeks past the given deadline for suspension before, and that was pre-COVID.

    Yeah, I'm not upset or attempting to bad mouth C4 at all. Just didn't know when was cool to send a friendly email to see how things are looking.

    Just got this delivered yesterday. Got the front on so far, still waiting on the lights to be mailed out.

    Ironman raid series bumpers.

    Packaging 5/5
    Craftsmanship 5/5
    Ease of installation 5/5
    __________________________
    My biggest complaint at the moment is sending this out with no instructions.
    I called them yesterday after unpacking everything looking for instructions and they told me they are literally putting together the instructions as I called. They will have video coming out sometime soon, but I didn't have the patience to wait.
    It took me a little bit but after laying everything out and matching all the hardware up I started to see how it goes.
    Really awesome quality here. Generally impressed with the whole thing from welds to the powder coat to the price of it all.

    Will look better when they ship out the lights that go with it. Install was straight forward.

    The last picture shows how it's a two piece design. The first piece attaches to the truck frame.
    Designing it like this made installing the winch super easy and helps reduce the weight of trying to attach everything as a single piece.
    The winch mounts in the center of that first piece, ironman claims this is a stronger design.

    I have this bumper in the cart right now, they have a sale for 1650 shipped including lights. Does this fit the trd skid and did it come with a skid? Do you know what brand the lights are? I was going to get floods, wonder if I can use for driving?

    The lights have not come in yet, as soon as they do I'll share pictures with installed and include feedback on the quality.

    Over all experience was good. I first called them before I purchased to confirm availability. I really didn't want to wait forever like most of the known bumper manufacturers on extensive lead time. They confirmed it was all available other than the lights.
    I was skeptical for sure on this purchase, its a really great price for all the included items. Seemed too good to be true.
    I also had no idea on the Craftsmanship, it's such a new item that I'm actually of the first people to receive one.
    After some deep research into the company i felt comfortable with making the purchase, overall everything I've read seems like overall satisfactory from the people.
    I'll attest after receiving the kit, the quality really is great, I come from a long line of race car building and I've seen well priced items that were totally dog shit, not the case here. This is well made.

    The 3 times I've called them, they always answer and I talk to a real person, that's pretty huge in my book. Customer service has not disappointed me.

    For the price, I jumped on the 25% off deal. I purchased the complete raid kit that included front bumper, rear bumper, and skid plates. I added the 12,000 synthetic roped winch to the deal and after taxes,shipping, all said and done it came to $4,517.79.
    It took 13 days to arrive and I had it delivered to my business where I could use a forklift and save on shipping residential. Total weight was 450lbs. Seriously the packaging was amazing. They called me before sending it and asked I inspected everything and let them know of any issues. Again, that's good customer service in my book.

    Hope this helps!
