Please do! Do you know if the tire carrier for it is available to be ordered?

AutoAnything matched JeepHut's price for me today. Front bumper on the way with the bully bar.

So I’m starting to bumper shop for my new rig and this is one of the ones on my list due to the reduced weight. They have been out on the market over a year now. Can anyone comment on durability? Any problems with towing, winching? Overall feedback and impressions encouraged.

Thanks!

I think they are Kumho Venture MT's KL71's. If I'm not mistaken... I love that tire

or they might be ProComp Xterrain

I just put one on my JK. Looks great. Hard to speak to durability as I try not to hit anything. I plan on adding a winch in the New Year, but haven't had a chance yet. To durability, the bumper is bolted onto the frame thru the two steel (big) shackles. I don't foresee winching to be a problem. Also, the bar (I'll add this when I add the winch) is steel and will help w any big hits from tall objects (deer). The aluminum is thick and hardened so unless you take a big hit, I don't see it getting mangled. This bumper is light! As light as the stock plastic POS. I'll try to add a pic, but I'm a newbie.
