Had anyone else run into this on the 2012's? I was under the impression from all the other threads that the pump had to be moved.

One note though, i had to ream out the upper most outboard mounting hole, driver side, to get the bumper on. Just took the largest drill bit I had and worked it back and forth to expand the hole slightly. Then touched up the paint, to prevent rust.

Here is the crappy iPad photo:

Everything else is OEM at this time, don't even have a lift yet. Still debating on whether to remove the crash bar, if I can find the right skid to go under I may just leave it.
