I saw the revised bumper yesterday. Looks awesome! Very nice changes. Hopefully early next year release.

No photos for us? I'll have to swing by and check it out. Thanks for the update.
So it's not available yet but he's taking reservations?
Well now... I'm suddenly in the market:
Kid in a Mazda rear-ended me in the ice/slush this evening. Should probably give Slee a call...

They might only put the bumper cover, reflector, sensor, and top cover on the claim. I'm going through the same nonsense (with more damage). Jason @reevesci and I have have been talking (mostly him answering my dumb questions) about building my rear bumper. If Slee doesn't have their's ready or if you're wanted a custom job, he'll be building mine once State Farm gets their s*** together. But I'm sure Slee will have a damn nice product though.

Was talking to Cristo today originally about drawers, kinda got on the subject of the bumper.
I'm pretty critical of armor, but I got to say, this thing sounds so well thought out, and so well executed that I can't stop thinking about it. I'm always willing to wait for a better product.

I've been waiting for two years.
After having his rear bumper on my 100 for years, nothing else I've seen or touched came close. I do get the impression that my 100 bumper was super thick steel compared to the new one, but we'll see. My 100 bumper was just crazy strong/thick.

Ehh, I did make that sound like I didn't like armor.
No, for my driving style, I really push my trucks off road. Not so much that I want to beat them up, but that big rocks aren't going to turn me away. So my trucks are going to get hit, HARD, by pointy boulders, year after year. I usually build my own stuff, but my job has me gone for months at a time, and when I am home it's usually 12 hour work days and half my weekends taken from me. That's why I'm looking at the Slee rear. If it's made out of some good high quality, thick metal in the right stops, great. I doubt it is like an ARB rear, where you get a weight penalty, but a very small return in protection. But I don't want to buy, and then basically reenforce like on a past expedition one bumper (junk stuff).
That's .125 DOM, stronger than the outer tube of Slee sliders, it is not suppose to look like that. I've wasted A LOT of money over the years on bad products trying to save time on not doing it myself, but even I am feeling pretty positive about the Slee rear end.
How official is that? I've been bugging them since last summer about this bumper?
Any chance Slee will release a version of the bumper without the tire carrier?
No but the 2 swing arms can be removed. The spindles will still be exposed though.
My sources are pretty solid...

Guess what we are installing! Getting closer to production pieces. Maybe this picture will explain why this has been taking this long!
