I’ve been stuck in clay mud three times and once in the snow in the past 3 months and pulled a truck out last week in the snow. Having the winch is the best.

well clay mud isnt natural. just like swamp. anything gets stuck in that lol. but i havent had much time to get into **** where i need my winch. cant wait till i do. (course i say this now....)

but I’m confused!? That says recovery... ohhhhhhh you bought the recovery gear to help your friends when they get stuck in their lesser 4x4s nice!

exactly :) its for helping others who think their grand cherokee is a 4x4 :D

Damn that's a nice looking rig! That bumper was made for it!

thank you whiteexpress. i wasnt sure at first but i like it. i know ill love it more once i get the light pods and light bar so i dont have big gaping holes like a **** star....

Yea it seems that’s all there is in my neck of the woods. Coats the tires and then that’s it. Amazing how fast it happens too

Ya, your bumper looks good, and thanks for posting up pics. I was seriously thinking about grabbing one when they were on sale, but I can’t decide if it’s too naked looking. I kinda like the look of the Fab fours matrix a little better, but the one you got definitely has more clearance and is a lot better price!

once i get the pod lights and the light bar in i will put new pics up. the pods are on a 30 day back order and the light bar 6 month wait. i knew this before hand going with sidetracked offroad and thats fine with me. im going with a flood 6 led on the outside of the front bumper and spot 6 led pods on the inside. the 30" lightbar will be a combo. for the rears i went with flood 6 led and im going to wire those into the reverse lights and into one of the homelink buttons as well. ill post a write up for that as well as the homelink button hook up for the 30" lightbar.

overall i am happy with the front bumper and while it looks a bit naked, keep in mind i have a 4.5" lift and 20" wheels with 37" tires. it looks less naked on a stock power wagon which is what their gallery pics are of.
