SummitRacing was similar. It's drop shipped from ARB and they only charge when it ships and shipping is free. I think you get email and post card reminders and for when it ships.I ordered the ARB through 4Wheel Parts. After a week of no update, I checked on the bumper... "Processing." I asked customer service what that means...
4WP: It's backordered with no ETA
Me: So... you ran my card, confirmed the order, but don't actually have the bumper and ARB's not planning on sending any more to the U.S.? Were you going to tell me?
4WP: Do you want to wait?
Unbelievable.
I started calling and emailing... probably contacted 10-12 off-road shops/online stores. Several showed they had one. But then, said "Oh, looks like we don't."
One shop - Fortec4x4 Jeep Customizing in Roswell, GA hunted down the ONE bumper currently in the country (according to ARB's database) and snagged it. He wouldn't run my card until he had a tracking number and was 100% certain the bumper was on its way. The bumper will be here next week. Andreas, the owner, could not be cooler. He went to all that effort... and he runs a Jeep shop - he knows he's likely not getting more business from me. That's just a solid dude. I'm going to drop in on some Jeep forums to spread the love.
What is that old saying? Work smarter, not harder.Time to start texting my buddies "Hey, wanna swing by for a beer?" "So, while you're hear, hold this right like that... okay... almost there... one more bolt... and... done. Let me get you that beer."

The installation looks pretty straightforward. The biggest challenge will really be just holding in place 'til the first two bolts are in. 20 years ago, I would've absolutely done this solo - on my back, bumper on my shins, one hand on the bumper, wrench in the other hand, bolts on my chest. Hmm... that could work
My recommendation would be if you want a winch in your pickup - put it in now. To install one down the road you'll be taking that bumper off again.
I had my wife hold it, kept the beers to myself.Time to start texting my buddies "Hey, wanna swing by for a beer?" "So, while you're hear, hold this right like that... okay... almost there... one more bolt... and... done. Let me get you that beer."
