bumper ?
I was thinking of buying the Rugged Ridge XHD Front Bumper. Would doing this add any more weight to my front end and make it uneven and I guess I can always put 3/4 lift spacers.
Obviously it depends on the bumper, but most full size aftermarket bumpers weight 90-110 lbs depending on features (not including winch).
The stock one weighs aroun 30 lbs. The problem is that weight has about a 2' lever so it causes more sag than you might expect.

Well it all depends what you put on the RR XHD. If you just get the center stubbie your not adding much weight. If you get the winch setup and throw a winch on then your adding quite a bit cause the winch weighs much more than the center section. There is also ends, hoops, stinger and a prerunner.
Im running the XHD stubbie, hoop and winch and its quite a bit of weight, probably around the 150lb mark, its the winch that really puts the weight up there. I had the end caps on but removed them when I went to 37" tires. Just put on the XHD rear and tire carrier, throw on a honker 37" tire and it pretty much evens it out.
