Have a Warn Elite and a Warn M8000 on the front. Dropped my front end ~1" -- but, that's probably 160lbs of weight.
Think the comment about putting two 40lb weights on bumper to see what happens is a good idea.

So glad I decided to take this before and after shot, always comes in handy for these threads. Here is a pic with stock bumpers no spare in vehicle or on back to PSC Trail stinger with smittybilt XRC8 comp winch/Genright steel carrier with spare tire mounted on back. Lift is OME HD long travel kit from NR4x4.
Oh, due to the HD coils the ride actually got better.

I agree, that should give you a good idea as to what will happen with your lift and bumper.

When I did My PSC front bumper which weighs about 75lbs and also my LoD rear tire carrier, no differnce except when you slam on the brakes you feel the sway a little but thats the only thing I noticed nothing at all no droop at all
