WARN rock crawler v.s. Rugged Ridge stinger
So I cant decide on what to get, just when i think I have it all figured out, WARN makes an awsome bumper. Which one does everyone like better and I would love to hear from people who use these products. Thanks

I had the Rugged Ridge XHD with stinger. The stubby by itself is bullet proof, however my experience with the stinger is not so good.
The stinger looks good, one of the best looking set ups I've seen, but it is weak as shit. My stinger buckled by just a simple push up on a ledge. I do not believe they use DOM tubing for their stingers.
So if you are going for looks, it would work. But if your a crawler, you might want to look at Warn or other vendors.
I currently run the PSC bumper/stinger now. Have ran that stinger much harder then the Rugged Ridge one and has held up well.
A buddy in my Jeep club has the RR Stinger and that has the same damage that mine had. Hopefully RR has improved their designs, or at least using better quality material.
