Winch Bumper

You know you're going to still have a gap? No-one makes stuff to suit a body lifted truck of the shelf.

True, but i think with some fab work the T15 would close the gap.





At least... i hope!

is there no way of exstending the mounting points as you do on a normal bumper to raise it

Depends on the bumper i guess, I think TJM have seperate winch trays for all there bumpers so the actual bumper itself dosn't need a ton of bracing . (i think!!)

Im not sure what the 4x4rus one would be like.... Not possible is most likly judging by everything else to do with them!


- Nero, you still gunna get yours?

Yeah, that what needs to happen, normally cut the old mounts off and make new ones, making sure you make a decent job of it, making the bumper sit 2" higher puts more leverage on the mounts when winching.

can live with the gap tony ,end cap finish is well $$$$ed,
where they have placed oil cooler,
said it would be flush fitting they knew about bodylift and said it was no prob ,
powder coated finish [which is not], recovery points [not there],
they had to drill new mounting points because the ones they measured never lined up,and charged me extra £150 for the extra labour ie drilling holes in bumper lol
will be happy to give them back my bumper and get a proffesionally made up one
