Did you get it with the stinger? I want them to weld the sting on instead of bolt on for strength.

oh ok i was hoping to see the bumper then but i guess more people have it anyways... cant wait for this run, i've been so busy with upgrades and fine tuning everything i haven't been out as much as i usually am
 
Me too and I've been working like crazy in the last 2 weeks I need to level my jeep the front is too low with all the weight now plus the winch I was going to go to 4 wheel parts and see if they have in stock a level kit that goes above the springs

Those bolts are what bring the stinger tight to the bumper. Not really a strength thing. The stinger is strong enough with those from bolts and the steel itself.

i have a 3 inch Pro Comp lift, not a high end one by any means but it has springs for the front and spacer for the rear with 4 Pro Comp shocks and track bar relocation bracket for the rear, all you need is a front bracket or adj. track bar like i did but you can have the lift for free.

oh i'm not doubting its strength in any way, i just like the look of clean welds over bolts, thats it, no other reason. i would have them bolt it in place, then weld it, then remove the bolts and fill in the holes so it would be a flush plate, but who knows i might just bolt it on.... depends on money ya know.:dont_know:

If that's the case you could just have the stinger welded to the bumper and not need the plate. Same as EVO1 basically.

ok sounds good i will be waiting for your call. its no problem at all, i pulled it off my jeep when i upgraded to the AEV lift so its just been sitting in my storage unit waiting for a good home, it is not a high dollar lift but it will give you the clearance for miller and larger tires until you can save for that high dollar lift...:thumb:
