Finally got the video edited from last weekends North Texas Bronco Club’s meet at Northwest OHV Park near Bridgeport, TX. We all had a blast from beginners to experts (I fall in the first category)! Check it out!

Love it so far. They just got a bunch in and sold out in a day, but they are getting 150 or so more next month so I hear. I haven't had to use the winch yet but that will be the real test. I have the LOD frame horn reinforcements on there as well.
So far I haven't had one issue. I cannot hear them over the soft top noise or radio. They ride smooth. I only have about 250miles on them so far. They did great off-road this past Sunday!

I really like Body Armor’s front bumper as it is a solid alternative to the still unavailable from parts counter Modular bumper. I will eventually install a winch, so for now I have not installed the winch plate yet. DD SS3s worked out great in the precut fog pockets and the included skid plate, although thin, is much better than the plastic one it replaced. Not having to cut off the preexisting tow hooks was a nice surprise as well due to the skid plate’s design.
LOL, I'm about to put my mod bumper up for sale.

Hoping to make the bumper work with my ARB skid plate instead of what they provide. Front edge of the ARB is a little higher and further forward than the stock skid. Any thoughts on how that might work based on your install?

Pics of them installed when you get a chance! Mine hang down too low also...Shortened up my Bartact grab handles
What tailgate support and highlift mount is that?Did Lockhart Basin trail in Moab. Didn't see anyone till the most southern area of the trail. It was nice getting away...
Here you go, we are a tall family with long arms so they should work well. This is before any use and they definitely have stretch in them.

With the Body Armor front bumper being one of the more high clearance offerings, the ARB skid should fit great. If I have any complaints about the Body Armor skid, it’s that it could tuck up a good bit more towards the LCAs more like the OEM skid plate, but it probably has that big flat void to aid in water drainage. That is one thing I noticed about the plastic bumper when I removed it, it was hoarding what seemed like a good couple gallons of water all to itself, lol. Also if your front crash bars are still installed, the BA bumper leaves them very exposed, but I left them on and plugged the ends with Mabett’s crash bar plugs. I dig how it all turned out.
Turn Offroad and home made mount.
Built a Hi-Lift mount for my Turn Offroad Tire Carrier! Thanks @Turn Offroad for giving us the provision to do such things!

Awesome work, love DIY! I like the built in tailgate stop too. Combo of hole saw and free hand angle grinder for the curves or plasma?
