That's kinda what i figured made it cave in so much. That does suck though that Warn doesn't make those anymore, they're awesome looking bumpers

Tell me about it. I could make a good proffit buying steel from my local guy, cutting with a torch, and mig welding them together.

It is amazing how they charge 1000+ for a bumper that takes them 2 hours to make and $100 in metal. Talk about markup

Some of the prices out there are nuts, I don't mind someone making a profit, especially if they are making a good product, but when the price spit runs $1000+ between 2 bumpers that are almost identical, thats crazy.

with light cutouts, guard, shackles (not D rings) and winch mount plate it comes to $995 bare metal, now to get a cost on chrome plating it.

The other ones I like are the Ruenels, but they start at $2300 for plain, almost $5000 for polished and the one that Buckstop makes


But it starts at $1600 plus $300ish to ship
