I talked to mike a few months ago and he said he would rate it 5000lbs but he's never fully tested it..... super nice for the price and he's willing to work with any concepts your imagination can grasp and you can explain with detail to him. SUPER NICE DUDE but very busy with pre-purchased fab bumps lately.
I'm curious to which bumper has the best departure angles? Slee vs BumpIfOffRoad vs Irbis vs 4x4 labs........
ARB definitely takes last! haha

yeah..Mike is a very nice guy to work with...he wants to do what you wants to do..Rear Bumper will tow 5000lb with no problems...I feel like I am in a tank with his front & rear bumpers
I don't know weather you have to cut the rear cross member for Slee's but for Mike's and Ibris we have to.....that makes a big difference in departure angle
slee = no cutting, just straight bolt up, extremely simple hard to f-up install. I thought about getting a bumper with higher clearance, but that would prevent me from keeping the spare underneath, plus bring the actual bumper in closer to my tailgate. I got a steel bumper for tailgater protection, so if it sticks out just smidge more then others, GOOD!
Nice bumpers. Little detail I saw, on the plate for the foot of the hi-lift, if there's a button on it (kinda like the top of a Lego block) that locates the jack really well. The hi-lift base has holes in it that can sit on it.

Very nice! I like the rear bumper. How much does the front bumper hang out
I think I'll call Mike!
Not as much as yours
Once you cut the rear cross member, it's easy as installing 8 bolts..
I did not know that Hilift base has holes in it ..it's no biggie..can put some hard rubber mounts on it..
How ever the CB antenna mount position has to be changed..if I don't open the DS swing arm and then if I want to open and close the top hatch, it get caught when I close the hatch...
Already spoke to Mike about it...he will adjust it in his future bumpers..
i cant wait until i get my bumper!!!!! i had him put lights in it....

you mean fog lights in the front???
Not as much as yours
They certainly are close. And those huge recovery points sure don't help. You also have more lift as me. Of all those pictures I am certainly the lowest. Can you take a 90* shot showing the approach angle?
yep...in the front...
This is just a BEFORE shot of the rear bumper

You mind me asking where you got your tail light guards?? Can't find them ANYWHERE!
Is your winch accessible at all - looks like just enough opening for the line?
My ARB is pretty closed, but not as much as it appears on your bumper. While I don't really like the styling of Slee's front bumper, I can very much appreciate the open access to the winch.

he and I are going to work up some turn signals in front bumper for us LEXUS owners that dont want to mess with stock assembly...LED turn signals in the wings. Then will mount my offroad lights in center hoop and use factory wiring for those as well.
