Going to work on our prerunner bumper

[DirtNasty]

So question for who ever can answer it.

I am going to assume that the normal RPG bumper would be able to house a winch behind the front skid?

I am also going to assume that the raceline bumper would not have enough space to house a winch?

Anyone got answers to the above two scenarios? Id LOVE LOVE LOVE to get a "race" front bumper and be able to stash a winch in there since i end up on a ton of jeep trails, and well im not 100% confident in always getting stuck in a place where a kinetic rope can yank me out.

So what has to be done to the front frame rails to mount RPG's bumper?

 

[pat'sRAPTOR]

You gotta cut them ******* back it's probably something they should do since it's not really something I personally would feel comfortable doing myself unless its really that simple. Cut them back an then weld the mounting bracket back on hmm?? Might look into it!

With this bumper (prerunner) there is no cutting. It bolts right up where the factory bumper does. Install is an hour. The race bumper requires cutting back the frame horns.

Ooh ok I see. That's pretty sweet! So what's the largest lightbar that can fit this bumper

Looking good Dave,

I like that you put your own little touch on it. That's whats kinda cool about this bumper. The main bar is build and radiused in such a way that adding a tube here, and a tube there can really personalize the whole thing.

Good Job Guys.

DirtNasty,

We are gonna do some homework on what winch will work on the bumper. I have had lots of request for them lately so we are gonna do some design work on it and let you guys know what is the best route to take.

Thanks.

The way I have it set up with the top bar I am running a 30in sr rigid. But a 40 is doable e series or sr if you make the bar a little wider.

The bumper is already set up to run a 20 in behind the main skid you just need to cut out the hole
