Only three of the lift points touch the bottom of the jeep on the car lift when we lifted it at the body shop.
In other words don't buy there bumpers I know a guy who works at skyjacker took an arb bumper and beefed up the mounts took a f250 head on and just bent the roller fair lead on his winch

I will post better pictures later but I hate dumb drivers. The driver in the Chrysler 200 was at fault.

Also if anyone is looking for a bumper, L & L Fabrications Pre-Runner bumper speaks for it self. The welds on the bumper are some of the best I have ever seen.

Hell yeah! Love mine too. If you would have ready painted it, it would have been stronger lol

Today I put my tag on from when it got put in my name. And played on a trail

Soo..... dont buy a bumper because your buddie's "beefed up" arb bumper took an f250 to the face like a champ?

Sounds like if I beef up my non arb bumper it will always fall short right?

So lets all go out and buy a bunch of over priced mass produced stuff for our jeeps. Slathered in arb. Otherwise. We will all die.

No sarcasm included

I broke my craftsmen torque wrench in the process ... and lost a layer of skin off of my pinky in the process.

And I am still in process of modifying the center caps. not sure if I want to color match them to the rims, paint them black or a combo of both.
I have those except I coated them Gunmetal. I just left the center caps chrome. Second pic, I hadn't coated the rears yet.

I wanted to paint them bronze but I looked for weeks and could only find the graphite... so I gave in and went w/ it. I'm satisfied w/ the results. As far as the center caps go, I am hacking off (cut two down already) the raised portion and making them flat. I'll have a better pic and post it tomorrow. I may even start a build thread. It will be a long process build. I am recently (within the last year) married and now am an expecting father.
