Still haven't heard a peep from the damn insurance adjuster even after several angry voice mails. Don't want to take it in until I've heard from them

My take on the bumpers that stick out alot, and only use the frame horns as attachment points, is that they're actually providing more leverage to mangle the frame horns.
Of course this is still preffered to having a moose go through the grill !
I just wonder if the outlaw and rpg bumpers that mount at the frame horns, and down low at the subframe, aren't more resistant to damaging the frame horns in a frontal impact...
All pure speculation of course, pics of your frame horns will tell the story. Be able to see if they're twisted up, or pushed straight back.

Dang, I've hit two deer in recent years in other vehicles, will definitely need to be getting something to protect my raptor when it arrives.

Pretty impressive! Glad you're ok. I could definitely use that bumper up here in Wyo Country!

Glad you are okay and really hope your raptor is too. That bumper did an incredible job!

If the frame is okay you should email ADD and tell them their bumper is moose proof. Good selling point haha.
