I agree with the stand pat theory. I wheel hard and run larger tires than you, just be easy on the "that was stupid" areas and the D30 (pending any manufacturing flaws) will do its job fine.

It showed up on Friday but UPS didn't deliver the box with the winch plate and bolts until yesterday. That didn't stop me, quick run to TSC for 1/2" grade 8 bolts and I was sporting the new bumper all weekend. Redid it last night with the winch plate when I got home. Now I just need to get a relay switch to run the lights through my factory fog light switch.

What brand/company did you get your ring and pinion from? Any additional parts or issues regarding fitment with the stock parts?
