Thanks for all the input. I just pulled the trigger on the Brawler Lite. Found one on the shelf with the tube gussets instead of the plate gussets, so I just couldn't resist. I'll post some pics as soon as it get in, powder coated and installed. I am so ready to have it on. I have a 3 1/2" Rock Krawler X-Factor Mid arm lift with 35's and I am getting tired off the tires rubbing the front bumper when I try any turn at all while flexed.

PM Red-Dirt. He lives there in Edmond and should be able to provide an up close look at it (but he's getting ready to head out of town on vacation, do don't dawdle unless you don't mind a wait of a week or two). I just helped him to install the Poison Spider bumper last Saturday. Nice bumper, beautifully made--but a lot, lot of work to install (cutting frame rails, etc). Trade-off is superb approach angle and very light weight on the front end.

The LOD I installed on another rig last week is awesome. Super easy install as compared to my Smittybilt. Put a warn 9.5 on it and it sits nice and low. Beautiful bumper I have no other experience with the others though but I don't think any are a bad choice. Even my Smitty for the price is not too bad.
