Default Smittybilt SRC

I found this bumper online for $319. I was going to wait to after Xmas when prices fall. But now I think $319, is pretty damn low. Anyone have any bad experience with Smittybilt??? Its actually cheaper for me than the Rugged Ridge, so what's the catch? Is there one?

Default same dilema

where are you finding the SRC for that price? I found the rugged ridge non-winch for 208.00 . I like them both but I would want the stinger for the rugged ridge which would add another 200.00.

Are you looking at the SRC Classic Rock Crawler? 4WD has it for $299 plus shipping.

Great price. The only thing I would ask up front is can they see some in stock. I ordered some of their sliders thru 4WP about mid-summer for an awesome sale price and were told they should be out in a month (still in development), but after waiting over 60-days, I got my deposit back. They could see over 50 on "national backorder", but couldn't tell me a for sure ship date.

Seeing these already on some JKs, you probably won't have that problem, but ask anyway.

I was looking at a magazine the other day that had an ad about the Smittybuilt bumpers on sale and they were giving the rear bumper free with purchase of the front. I think it was 4WD or 4WD hardware, or something like that. If anyone is interested, I will look again tonight and let you know for sure.
