Mild build 24 AT4X

Got my bumper today. Very nice, high quality.
I will only say this so far: do not use Auxbeam 7” lights. I’ve already lost count how many different ways they don’t fit. They interfere with everything.
Updates soon

I paid $900 plus $300 for shipping. I noticed today the price shot up to $1300 plus shipping. Better hurry, things aren’t getting any cheaper

I’d like to get opinions on a snorkel. I’ve never really liked them, kinda thought it was mostly poser paraphernalia but already I have run into a couple situations where a snorkel would have been practical. I really don’t like the way it looks on this truck but I am considering one.
But first I’m going to need to get my Eibach springs in to compensate for the extra weight up front.

The one thing that would stop me from doing a snorkel is cutting into the fender. I use my truck for off-roading, she is no pavement princess, however I drive her daily. I want everything i do to her to be able to be taken off, if i want to trade her in for the next truck 4 or 5 years down the road.

Good point

So the Auxbeam 7” lights didn’t fit in the center 2 light holes mainly because of the design of the brackets that came with the lights. The brackets themselves are very well designed and strong but the just don’t jive with this bumper. This required me to make some mods to the light brackets and the bumper. Not ideal so I would recommend a different set for the center 2.
The outside 2 fit the 5” Auxbeam perfectly with no modifications.

Nice work on the mod. Their design of that strap welded in, looks like it could have not had to have such a severe bend to it, from the get-go.

Yeah they could have pushed that bend farther towards the outside.
