This. It's probably worthwhile to mount this on a Jeep at this point to really gauge what looks right/works right. I'll throw another vote in for the bigger gussets though, they look right. I also much prefer the way they angle out to match the lines of the bumper in a visual sense. As an engineer I realize some strength is compromised, but the odds that I'll end up standing my Jeep on the stinger are low enough that I can put it out of my mind

Thanks to our friends over at RIPP Superchargers for this photo of their JK at Moab EJS, sporting a bunch of Poison Spyder gear including the Brawler Lite with Brawler Bar and Skid

We're just trying to dial in the plate steel gusset and thought we'd ask the peanut gallery for some feedback





That is a sweet bumper!!! Any pics with the tube gussets yet? Im betting that will look sick as well

I would rather see the plate go more straight back in line with the frame rails. This would provide better suport in a frontend stand dropping down a waterfall and frankly the current gussets look like wings.

It should be any time now. I think its just waiting for scheduling in our shop. We're already building Brawler Lites as fast as we can to keep up with demand for the existing designs, so its just a matter of slipping in a run of these at this point. I would guess that should be within the next couple of weeks.
