ahhhh. always such good ideas I have to start a project I have no clue about. someone asked the backspace, its 4.5 which was what was recommended through rock krawler. I am starting to look into gears now after these posts. Would I be better going with a mid length end caps for the bumper instead of the full width. I like the full width "look" better but function is a huge part, if it doesnt turn its not much good. I can probably switch it out before it ships

I originally picked mid width for a little more protection on the road...

But I wound up getting 37's and had to buy a new stubby bumper so the big tires wouldn't run.

Is your bumper modular enough to bring it down to the width of a stubby?

Do you think you'll ever goto 37's?
