For it to be truly effective it *should* have some gussets on the back side of it. It's a little low for a trail stinger also, more of a mini brush guard.

I understand, I'm looking to dispose of my trail stinger now. But if he's designing them for rollovers then they need to be higher and with gussets. If it's more of a brush bar then it's fine how it is. I would certainly consider something like that if he were to sink the winch plate deep into the framerails.

Yea for mine it's more of a brush guard I didn't like the shape of the typical bull bar but didn't want the full height of a stinger for a daily driver
