Smittybilt does have EXCELLENT customer service.
That being said I chose the Rugged Ridge with stinger for 3 reasons:
1. I want the winch to sit down between the frame rails to allow more air into the radiator
2. I wanted to retain the factory fog lights since I already have the lights, wiring and the switch is integrated into my headlight switch.
3. You can change it up by adding ends, removing the stinger for a clean look or adding a winch hoop etc.

Which makes the stinger a mute point if you ever need to really use it..At this point Im leaning towards EVo, OR-Fab or LOD..
