Default Rugged Ridge front bumper

I was thinking of getting the Rugged Ridge front bumper but wanted either the stinger or the pre runner guard. But it looks like on both you lose your front tow points? It this correct? How can i be pulled out if im stuck from the front?

Anyone have these on there jeep? Pics?

I thought you loose the factory D-ring setup when installing either the pre-runner or stinger. However I've seen both in person and I thought the stinger and prerunner have a spot for a d-ring

If you are talking about the Rugged Ridge Modular XHD front bumper then both setup's still have the d-rings. The stinger setup just moves the d-rings further to the outside.

Both have D-Ring attachment points near the tubes. If you look on quadratec's website, you can build it, and see what it looks like on a Jeep.

I am running this bumper and have no faults with it, however, I have the "bull bar" which goes over the winch, and that allows for the tow rings on the front of the bumper. I took my entire bumper down and had it Rhino lined and it has worked great.
