I take it the suspension held up nicely for the trip?
What cool bolt on toys had you drooling in Colorado?

It did well enough. The new OEM AHC springs actually helped a lot. After 8 years the originals were a little worn I guess. Was fine wheeling but the trip out I was low riding. Especially compared to the trucks that have a proper 2.5" lift. The most I can squeeze out if mine now is about 1". Another problem is that it's maxed out where it sits. So can't add anything else until that's addressed.
There were lots of cool toys. Slee's built 200 was awesome.
The TrekBoxx drawer system was also a pretty unbelievable system. Tons of cool features and adds lots of storage. But since I'm not the kinda guy that spends $3500 on a drawer system, won't be having one of those.
First time I had seen a FoxWing awning, which was really slick. You can put a lot of ground under shade with one of those things. The coolest part was that it covers the rear of the truck, so you could access the cargo area easily in the rain. Gonna have to have one of those soon.
There were a ton of cool front bumpers there, and I want one bad. Guy from TX had a BIOR with a stinger that was really cool. But...suspension has to get flipped before I bolt anything else on. Hopefully I can talk Chris into letting me and a tech rip it out next spring
Sorry for the long reply...

Was wondering on the front bumper. Figured there was a reason you didn't have one.
Post a pic if stinger bumper. I usually hate stingers but I like what you like generally so let's see it.

You motivated me to go polish my turd
Truck looks good. Don't you have a blueberry? That's the one I like the most, I think...
I will sort through my pics see if I can find some of the stinger. Might PM the guy see if he can send me one also. It's good looking.

The front brush guard on this bumper is sort of "stingerish" looking. This isn't it, is it?

That BIOR bumper looks like $h!t. Other than for a winch mount, I see no need for a front metal bumper unless your a bad driver. I never smacked my front bumper but I tore off my rear plastic bumper more than I can remember.
Now going to see the Slee 200.

Slee bumper. Yes. Superb quality and fit. Simply superb.
Slee rules.
Julius ordered one of those $1500 drawer systems. If I did not NEED the 3rd row I would get drawers. That said, I also have a man cave for all the s*** I would keep in the drawers.

I agree on the Slee stuff. My rear bumper is nice but nowhere near as nice as the Slee. It's impossible to custom fab something higher quality than a product that's been through the full development and manufacturing process--at least in this case I think.
When I do get a front bumper it's gonna be the Slee blueberry.
As far as the drawers go, I use the s*** out of mine. Best mod on my truck. But I did it the redneck way for $300, not $3000...

I'll put in a vote for the BIOR rear bumper. I love mine. Looked at a bunch of Slee's at HiH and think the BIOR is a better product. Fully customizable to your personal needs, and one handed operation. Those are 2 huge selling points for me. That said, I really don't like the aesthetics of the BIOR front bumper or the Blueberry. I went with the ARB sahara, and don't really love that either Have yet to see a 100-series front bumper that knocked my socks off

I liked my BIOR rear bumper as well. Never rattled, and the two gas struts to open / keep open the swing outs were the cat's a$$. Mine was the high-clearance version, and the only aspect of the bumper I didn't like were the two tube assemblies that protected the rear quarter panels behind the tires. I don't really care for "tube" anything, but it's my understanding that design has been changed. Haven't had a Slee rear bumper (well, not one with swing outs, anyway), but I can't say enough good about the BIOR rear for a 100.I'll put in a vote for the BIOR rear bumper. I love mine.

The BIOR 100 front bumper? I agree with the others that that's a different story altogether. The one above is heinous looking!
