Default 10th Anniversary Bumper Weight?
Does anyone know what the weight and material of the 10th anniversary bumpers (front and back) are and what they're made of (plastic, steel etc.)?

I'm looking to upgrade my bumpers this week and I'm caught up between going with the AEV bumper set or the 10th anniversary set.

Lookswise I like the AEV set slightly better but I heard that the front bumper weighs around 125lbs (200+ with the winch) as it's made of solid steel.

Don't know much about the 10th anniversary bumpers.

Thanks fellas...

They're steel, but pretty light.

Steel, I just took both off and replaced them. I would say the front is at least 75 lbs. Rear is lighter but unsure how much......

I weighed mine. It was 80lbs with the end caps on. keep in mind that does not include a winch plate, front skid plate or if add a hoop.

What are you asking for the take-offs? I'm in TN so I'm not too far - where in VA are you? Thanks.

Yeah I see that.

I've been watching a pair on ebay. Looks like the front sold for $900 and the rear for $700 so $1600 total and that doesn't include shipping plus I'm trying to get the winch and hoop as well.

Trying to see if it's worth the dough
