I've been running it for 3 years. Amazing quality and absolutely love it. It took 4 months to get to my door back in 2011. Not sure if they have improved on their delivery times.

Mark Doiron runs Shrockworks. PM him or just watch a few of his latest videos to get an idea of how they hold up. They are TOP quality.

They were known to have long wait times in the past but not sure about now. Shrockworks will give you a realistic timeframe for delivery, not the typical empty promises that some other vendors give.

I have the mid width and the bumper is as heavy duty as it gets. The winch sets down in the frame rails and mounts through the bumper, a winch plate, and the lower skid. This gives the winch 3 layers of steel to reinforce it.

No experience with stubby, but love my midwidth. Very stout and held up great so far. It is 4 years old.

Sent from some string and a few tin cans.

I need to add to it since I have done a lot of mods since the bumper went on. Ask away all you want to know about the bumper.

The hard part was taking off the old bumper with all the plastic screws that strip in the air damn and what not but that is the same with all the bumpers out there. The real hard part of this bumper is the skid plate. If you install it by yourself it is challenging. I did it by myself twice because I wanted to make an adjustment . I recommend a second set of hands.

The worse part I have to say is waiting for the damn bumper once you buy it. I emailed once a month for updates. It was hard not too. But once you get your bumper that is all forgotten. I love this bumper.
