Yes. I have a 2018. I agree that their website is ambiguous/unclear. It would be pretty simple to make it a little better. Product is nice and well powder coated. Maybe they meant 2010-2024? I don’t think there is any difference in the rear shock design and location for the 2010-13 versus the 2014+. As far as trapping water, some members have stated that they drilled a small hole in the bottom. I didn’t. They should do this.

Thanks! I was actually contemplating a hybrid bumper with all the memorial day sales going on. Was debating between the bamf or c4. Found this hefty aluminum on fb marketplace at a hefty discount so I couldnt pass on it. Glad I went with an aluminum though.

Awesome, thanks for the quick and thorough response. I need to get some more armor underneath the truck post-summer, and a rear diff skid/shock skids are high up on the list.

Just got a call that the "Blue Beast" is ready. Rent a car tomorrow, leave Friday, pick it up Friday evening or Sat morning, see some petroglyphs outside of Klamath Falls, leave Sunday, stay over in Bend and head home. Road construction on the "Rez", so we'll have to detour.

Duck!
Was crowded into a parking garage with a small "6'1" clearance" sign over the entry and literally ducked as I drove through. On the way in the second time, I reached my hand up out of the window to feel how close it really was - woah! Also, checked my shark fin for any scrapes. All good today, thankfully, but definitely a compelling case for keeping stock height

Not today but in the last week I had the Toltec kit removed and 265 NRG's put on, rides nice and plush again. Also new belt, front brakes/brake fluid.
Been hitting the single track a lot..its good dirt season down here.

Packing up the rental for a quick turn-around trip to pick up "The Beast". Installed a portable Garmin GPS in the rental. Will move it to her RAV when we return!

This is my main reason I kept my truck stock height, too many 6' parking garages in my city
