OK
I have been going back and forth.
I looked at other bumpers and winches but these are the two
I have decided Id want to have.

Of these two choices what would you guys pick???

AEV Bumper & Skidplate with Warn 9.5 TI and the PIAA lights

or

Shrockworks Mid Length with hoop, Fogs, Warn Powerplant and PIAA lights???

I also looked at the FabFours with which Id run the 9.5 TI but I do not like how you cant easily add on PIAA lights (I am sure you could drill holes but I dont know if it would even fit well with their hoop

 

When you price them both out they are priced within a couple hundred bucks of eachother.

 

FYI - the Shrockworks mid-width comes with a skid plate that protects roughly the same area as the air dam covers.

 

Uhmm...I might be biased! But put in my vote for you!

 

I am putting the AEV front bumper and 9.5 ti on our new 4 door it is a sweet bumper.

What OBA solution are you going to use?

 

I am not sure yet possibly a york , Powertank or oone of the new Warn compressors.

On our 2 door we have the powerplant and it will be with us every where we take the 4 door so I may not do anything.

The Yorks kick ass, but, as you always wheel with your other powerplant equipped partner jeep....sharing the air is probably the least expensive solutiion. I did see recently a york-like competitor...I can't remeber where though, but it sounded like the same type of set-up, but half the cost.

When I am airing up after a run...a line forms like I was a filling station...everyone waiting their turn to air up.

Afterall, its faster to use a tank/compressor that does a minute a tire after waiting 10 minutes for a turn, than to use your ARB compressor that takes 15 minutes a tire.

 

i would hurry to the sponsoring vendors section if you want a 200 dollar deal on the AEV bumper....

 

I voted for the Schrockwork's because it's exactly the set up that I've been looking at, but in the special anthracite finish...

Either choice would be nice, though!
