They are sturdy!! Saw a pic here on the forum somewhere of an SUV (?) that hit the corner of an ARB on a member's JK in a parking garage - he had a scuff on his bumper; she had to be towed away.

anyone running one with 37's? I'm installing my TF 4" Long Arm and 37" KM2's next week and was just curious if anyone has any rubbing issues. I'd hate to have to sell my brand new ARB bumper b/c of rubbing issues with my 37's. Any Pics with ARB and 37's?

Square metal stock
I just took a piece of square steel stock (hollow - not solid) and cut them off about 3" long. Then placed them between the already provided bumper brackets for the lights and the Hi-Lift. I used stainless steel bolts to hold it all together. The jack is high enough to be out of the path of the headlights, but low enough that it doesn't sit above the hood.

I know you will have to remove the "wing" braces, but since you're installing the smaller KM2 37s, it may work. There was a thread in the forum somewhere discussing this already - not sure where though as I didn't search.
