Guys, I wanted to get some feedback on an idea. i work for an aluminum extruder and have been trying to put together an idea on a bumper. What is your thoughts on an aluminum bumper. i know it would be weeker than a steel but would be significantly lighter. Give me some pros and cons.

 

the teraflex bumper is aluminum and from what i have seen, it does the job.

 

im sure that you know some aluminum is just as strong as steel do it in black might be good. ill be looking for it

 

if i had the choice of having the same bumpers i have for the same price, except in alluminum, id choose the alluminum. they would have to be powder coated though.

Good idea. Give the Al a try. It will be lighter than a steel bumper and as long as you are not dragging it across rocks, it should hold up fine.
