Looking to buy an Rpg race line or Stewarts Raceworks front bumper. Anyone have one they plan on liquidating in near future? Thank you much

Those are both weld on bumpers, which require cutting the frame and welding the bumper mounts in it's place. It's a pretty permanent setup, so I think your chances of finding a used one are pretty slim. Might get lucky and find someone who bought one and decided against the install.

That said, both are great choices!

The RPG bumper is bolt on, but you do have to cut the frame rails. The prerunner one RPG sells is also bolt on, but no cutting.

^Beat me to it. If your gonna go with an aftermarket bumper the cutting of the frame rails are a positive modification. It's necessary to gain a better approach angle. I beat the snot outta the bottom of my ADD Stealth bumper before upgrading to the RPG Raceline. Kinda wish I skipped the middle learning step. It was money that could've been spent elsewhere.

I was under the impression the Stewarts Raceline bolts on as well, but also required the frame mod.

Why do you have to cut the frame rails for the RPG bumper? Does it give the front more clearance?

Here you go...

I went with an ADD Race bumper and I'm happy. No cutting at all. Just bolt on. Is the approach angle as drastic as a bumper where you cut the frame horns? No. Do i need one? No. Did I cut my frame? No.

There's pluses and minuses to everything kid. Just determine what YOU want and get it. There's ALWAYS gonna be people saying you made a bad choice, they would've gone with the other, blah blah blah. Do what you want. Get the one you want and don't turn back.

I guess I should clarify...the Stewarts bumper bolts on, but it bolts to mounts that are welded onto the frame after you cut the front of the rails off.
