Default Purchasing the new LOD armor-lite front bumper

UPDATE: PICTURES OF INSTALLED BUMPER AND WINCH ON PAGE 3

I am purchasing the new LOD armor-lite front bumper tomorrow. It's light weight bumper made of stamped steel. The bumper is so new that it isn't on the LOD site yet...

$499 for bumper
$99 for bull bar
$79 for skid

I'm also purchasing an Engo 9K winch with synthetic line.

Do you like it or hate it?

Looks good to me. I like the price. Any light tabs?

How do you like the winch so far? I am interested in that as I have read good things.

The bumper only weighs 33lbs (a little more with bull bar and skid).

Hit up Chris at JeepAddOns for a great deal. He's a vendor on the forum. Tell him Scooby sent you!! HAHA!!

PS. I am also getting the Rock Krawler adustable lower control arms and track bar from him.

Thanks. It's a work in progress... I need to get it off road... other than the beach, it's been a mall crawler. Would like to take a trip to Uhwarrie if I can get time between the kids activities. HAHA!! Heading to the rodeo on 401 tonight with my 13 year teen girl and a friend... I better take the ear plugs!!
