Man thats nice. I know several people who have traded their stock bumper for one of those. If plastic wasn't begining to fall off of my stocker on one side, I would try to trade! I don't think any one would trade for mine.

thats sweet. did you put the leveling kit on there AFTER you put the bumper ?
i need to get a level kit for mine but want to add a block on the rear to keep the minimal rake stance.

get out on open road and watch it go down. those bumpers kill you on the hwy. plus way add weight that just slow you down.

Yeah that where i figured out the mpg, I had to drive about 175 miles to get it. I checked mpg when i got there and also when i got back. Actually it was 1.3 mpg loss. I averaged around 18.5 city before the bumper so a little over 17 isn't to bad in our big trucks.
