Default Stinger for the Rough Country stubby hybrid bumper

I've been emailing the sales & marketing guy at Purejeep about a stinger for the RC hybrid stubby, for now the only catch is that you have to pay up front and it takes 3-4 weeks before it would ship. Then I thought that if there was a large enough interest from all you guys on here that bought the bumper he might be able to work out a good price for us. I just emailed him with my idea of posting something to that effect on this forum so we will wait and see if he is interested. If you are interested you can email him, I got his address from their website at the bottom under the contact us link, sales@purejeep.com. I hope I'm not stepping on any toes or breaking any forum rules but this info is listed for the public on their website. I'm getting an estimate for one regardless and will let you know what it is in case anyone wants to do the same. I was kind of hoping that the RC vendor would see all the interest in it and start to work on it themselves but it doesn't look that way.

I think the first and last one would be easiest to modify into what would mount in the same way that the purejeep light bar does while allowing the D-Ring mounts to be used.

I bought the hybrid in thoughts that it would be cheaper, but no with all the add ons, it's getting to be about the same price as some higher quality stingers.

No price yet, but if I don't get an email back by tomorrow I will call.

I haven't seen a bumper yet in the style I like, with fog light holes, and recessed winch mount AND a stinger for less than $600-$700. This one fits it perfect for me. Plus its at least 50 pounds lighter.

Why wouldn't the rc stinger in theist to pics bolt on to the stubby hybrid bumper? Same bolt holes?

The holes don't line up, they are for different bumpers that mount differently, I've looked at the instructions for them the holes are close, only an inch off at most, hard to tell from pics, some would probably fit with minor alterations.

New option, pretty sure this will fit. The lower dring plate mounts to frame rails, just need to modify the uppers some how to get them to work.
