You have to cut the frame both front and rear in order to install the BFH bumpers. It shows everything as far as the install goes right on their site. Just click on the installation instructions once you have selected the bumper itself.

My buddy and I both have the BFH's with the trail stingers (and the rear BFH's too). As answered above - yes, you do have to modify the frame a bit, but it isn't too much, and Poison gives good instructions. Totally worth it in the end, IMO.

No problems for me. Just a few cuts with the sawzall and you're through with it.
