I don't off-road ENOUGH. Florida is boring for offroading.

Yeah I don't think you really wheel
Yeah, bite me. You have no idea where I've been or what I do..

Correct, but if youre not even hitting your rear bumper I can imagine not much
i actually had a good conversation yesterday with the guy at 4x4 Labs so I’m seriously considering the kit package. I know a good welder and it seems like a viable option for what I want. Dobinsons was my next option. Still looking though...
I have long considered their kit option to be the best bang for buck - but I don't have welding skills. Keep us posted on the cost and quality of local weld job.
Don't let him get under your skin, your irritation will only feed him
. Get a rear bumper if you want to!I don't disagree, vast majority of us, even the ones who wheel on mild trails, don't need a re-enforced rear bumper, but dammit if it isn't ultimate masculine jewelry!
What’s the deal? If you do a solid axle swap you get to troll and be an a$$hole everyday on the forum?

No but if you trash talk someone because they want a cheap bumper I think it's reasonable to question their authority on the matter
Depending on your purpose... Bought a rear bumper with swing arms to carry jerry cans, trasharoo, high lift jack, traction boards, ability of 2nd spare when needed, and of cause the look! All those could go on a roof rack (except cool look) at 1/3 of the cost but didn't want to put all that weight up there. This decision costed me about 2k
and an inconvenience of once or twice a week use of the hatch/gate.
Agreed... I really wanted a Slee...
Do I need it? 
I thought I had the justification as I didn't think my 17" Rock Warrior and Wildpeak AT would ride well up in the OEM spare tire position. 
Blew that thought up...
Don't be a dick this forum is better than that, you should be too
You may check the front side of the tire for rub against the cross support bar of the diff. It may rubAgreed... I really wanted a Slee...

Looks great! I have mine on order with Ben!
Bumper all the way, IMO. Seems like the Wilco has all the negatives of a steel bumper with swing outs (pain to access the rear hatch) but none of the advantages like better departure angle and additional strength and protection. Since it mounts in the trailer hitch I'd say you loose departure angle with a Wilco.
Of course all of that only matters if you're wheeling your truck.
Half the cost for 30% the function.
