it is good for roll over protection for your rad support, you can use it to bump up a log, rock or old delipilated car, good for directing sticks and stuff under the vehicle instead of over the hood, tie a rope to it and have buddies pull to help stabilize an unstable position, bend you gf over it on camping trips, mount a snatch block to the end and move a engine or mother in law around your yard and best of all MOOSE protection... its a canadian thing lol

it can prevent rollovers going down steep obstacles and also keep you from smashing your engine i believe

Default Now she will hold

Yo Smack - Install some gussets on the stinger - looks better and it really supports the it making is much stonger. Prior to this I could push on the front of the loop and see it give just a little. Now it is very ridged and I love the look...

Rustoleum black spray in bedliner is a prefect match for the finsh. The paint was still wet when I took this pic last night but today its dry and looks great.
