Thanks.

Im very happy with mine.

Thanks for the reply and the pic.
Gawly, a shade under 200# you say? That seems kinda heavy.
I have the same bumper on my truck. It is not too heavy with OME Dakar springs, a full truck box, and camping gear.
I layed the truck on its side into the dirt on "Whatever" at BMRA over the weekend. I cracked the driver tail light. I credit my ARB up front and the rock teck in the rear for saving sheet metal front and rear as I tried to clear the obstacle on my side. The bedside popped out, back into shape with no permanent damage.

^ Thanks for that info.
I have All-Pro leaf springs (3"). They claim to keep close to stock capacity. I also have a tiregate with a 33 and a hi-lift mounted to it. I just don't want to squat the rear too much with the weight of the bumper. And that worries me since your truck has Dakars (that I know add capacity) and the other truck is running an AAL, which adds some capacity, too. I don't want to buy new leaf springs to add a bumper.
I called and left a message for some info.
