    Progress!
    IMG_3636.jpg

    Everything is just hanging somewhat loose and will get tightened up once it’s on the truck and aimed, but I’m digging it so far.

    One sad thing, I couldn’t make the Diode 42” bar work, so I need to decide what to do with that… maybe I can sneak it onto my wife’s car

    That will look really nice with the tubular rear bumper you have on already.

    Are you putting a winch on it? Just wondering if it drops the front end with the weight. I have Icon and the coil over is 600lb so I was wondering what your front end does

    I will eventually. I've already talked to @memario1214 about this and will probably grab some 650 lb Eibach coils when I finally pull the trigger on that. I'll also see how bad the sag is with just the weight of the bumper, which I'm hoping I can live with for now.

    Is that bumper really that much heavier then stock? I mean, I know its going to have a few pounds extra. But between the crash bar and stock front, wouldn't think that Ironman front without a winch would cause a lot of sag...

    I think it's around a 40-50lb difference. I haven't seen much for exact numbers on the stock bumper though.

    And you have the viper cuts, so your stock is down a little already. I'd hope 40-50 really does make much of a difference to both front shocks. If so... you could just lose some weight
