Hi Wally
The bumper comes as 3 major components 2x brackets & 1x bumper

The 2 brackets are built to outlast civilisation - very thick steel heaps of good welds and gussets - these bolt onto the factory chassis rails & cross member.

I haven't had occasion to test em (tow points) out yet but as I bolted them on I appreciated the quality design and ruggedness - IMHO they are overkill! and I like that LoL - when I get chance to snatch some big 4by Ill post up and ofcourse add some pix
Cheers Hunty

Just had a chance to give this one a good test with a week camping trip away, plenty of snatches and didn't feel concerned at any point.

I picked this one up from ebay for about $1400 as it was their demo one, i think normally they are around $1700. I was really looking for a way to get some more fuel carrying capacity and when i found auxillary tanks for two dr pertrol's were only 42 litres and around $1100 i looked at some alternatives, one of which was this. Able to carry 40litres in jerry cans plus a steel rear bar for not much extra $$$

This wasn't the best looking one i found, i like the LOD ones personally but i couldn't justify the extra expense

Is this the MIC bar? Looks pretty good for the price.
