Balancing Strength & Weight Savings

Typical aftermarket bumpers are either made from steel or aluminum. Each material has its pros and cons. All steel bumpers are strong but heavy and prone to rust. All aluminum bumpers are lightweight, resist corrosion, and are expensive but not as strong as steel. The answer is our hybrid design that combines the best of both materials to give you a strong, lightweight bumper that looks amazing and performs even better.

***Most winches WILL fit this bumper with no issues; however, if your winch height exceeds 10.1", you may have to relocate your solenoid OR slightly modify the crossmember. Specifically, on WARN ZEON winches, they are 10.5" tall and require relocation/modification.***

***Installation may require minor alteration to front transmission line***

***THIS PRODUCT IS MADE FOR OFF-ROAD USE ONLY***
