Evo aluminum 1/4 pounder

Looks like they’ve been recently discontinued. Any recommended vendors of this site that may stock them?

It’s not recent. Been discontinued for some time, according to EVO. Someone else on here was asking me about them not long ago.

Not the news I was looking for. Thank you for letting me know. I guess I’ll just scour the Internet for used ones

Good luck. Been doing that for a month.

Also not the news I was looking for. Why do you think they stopped making them, lack of sales?

That’s a fair guess. Sales, price, and cost to fabricate prob all played a factor

What’s wrong with the original 1/4 pounder?

Nothing at all, just preference. 1/4 steel plate is heavy...and overkill for what I personally need.

This. I went from the steel to the aluminum version because a friend was selling his for a good price and I wanted to offset the weight of my winch. It’s way lighter by about 75 pounds IIRC. I have thought about changing up the look but I still love the look of the bumper and stinger

The steel version is beefy, but you really don’t even notice the weight difference after a while. If you want the strongest bumper that can handle lots of winching and protect you and your front end, go for the steel.

I think you should change up the look and sell me yours. But seriously, let me know if you do end up selling.

I wanted the aluminum also but went with steel. Still wish I could find an aluminum 1/4 pounder and fascia to replace my steel ones. Gets too salty here in winter, the less steel the better

That was my reason for wanting aluminum. The weight savings is just a bonus to me.

:thinking: Ever seen what that brine shit does to aluminum? You're better off with the painted steel.

I had planned on powder coating the aluminum.

That's a good Idea, but I was quoting Braxtonsag
