Good job Justin, and as a bonus, we get to see the legendary winch in action.

Not a bad looking full width bumper from MBRP. High clearance approach angle for the tires, but still offers protection against intrusive trees.

It is the width of the Bushwackers, so that would make it 2" on each side wider that stock fenders.

You just wanted to try out the winch, make sure that it worked before you got buried in the mud up to the antenna.

Was the extraction on the taxpayers dollar
i wish...unfortantly i wasn't working today. I have class all day :(. And of course with the duelers it could have driven off the road and back on LOL. The only problems with that winch are: 1) its slow as xmas, but gets the job done 2) the way its mounted kills my departure angle 3) the way its mounted makes the swing gate unuseable. Other than that its great LOL

Does the bumper come in a mid or stubby, or just the full?

Here's the thread Chris (Bama) ---> https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/sponsoring-manufacturers-vendors-check-out-cyber-monday-specials-24/mbrp-bumper-pricing-forum-special-109783/

It is the width of the Bushwackers, so that would make it 2" on each side wider that stock fenders.
Was wondering about that when I first saw it too Chris (GA) . . . turns out that was a prototype bumper designed around the Bushwackers. Here's some later pics of the production version with stock fenders.

Default New Bumper

i like the prototype better. I think it looks better with the fog lights on the outside corners instead of under the bumper.
