GEN 2 Bolt-on Front Bumper Discussion

[OffroadAlliance.com]

Guys that need to run with front plates. Where do you guys mount them?

I know most of you will tell me don't put it on. I am from NYC and when I had my Z06 I didn't run front plates either. But at least once a month I would get a ticket. Just got annoying.

Swarfworks makes a nice license plate kit that mounts to the front tow hooks. May or may not work depending upon your bumper.

We have the same issue here in Texas. I used a cheap mount from eBay, less than $10. It was plastic so I drilled the plastic to mount the bracket to the truck with the screws that were on the skid plate of the ADD Stealth Fighter front bumper. Then I attached the plate to that bracket. It hung down about 1/4” below the bottom of the skid, but I could pull it off in seconds if we took the truck off the pavement or did and photoshoots with it.

Did anybody have the actual weight of the Add pro bolt on bumper and the Fabfour in comparison to the stock pumpers?

My fabfour weighed under fifty pounds. I didn't weigh stock bumper and end wings. I use a sto n go license plate holder. Works well when I need the plate on and off. Bracket attaches to underside of skid plate.

Could you share the setup on the silver truck? What wheels/specs, which tire is that and size and what have you done to the suspension? Thanks in advance!

The truck looks silver, but is actually Lead Foot.

Wheels: 20” VenomRex 601 Patina Bronze
Tires: Nitto Ridge Grappler LT325/60R20
Suspension: RPG Adjustable Collars (Level 4)

Minor trimming to clear tires at full lock.

Please let me know if we can answer any other questions for you or help with anything else!

Looks sharp! Is the collars/ level required to fit the wheel/tires? Or would trimming be enough?

What is the backspacing/offset of the 601s?
