Bumper w/ Body Lift?

[Synister]

Starting to plan for an aftermarket bumper acquisition and am curious as to which bumpers are compatible with a body lift. I am running 1.25" so I would need at least that much adjustment over stock. I am open to suggestions for both plate steel and tube steel bumpers as Im still on the fence about which one I want. The more suggestions the merrier, thanks in advance.

My CBI is. They're built to order, so you specify how much body lift you have and they'll build your bumper accordingly. Although they do upcharge for it. I questioned Nathan on this at first because to me it seems like you just position the mounting bracket in a different location before welding it on, but I think they actually at material (make the bumper a little taller maybe?). This probably cuts down on interference issues since some of the edges run really close to some of the AC lines and what not. Overall I've been extremely satisfied with my CBI and will be a customer for life for all of my needs of this sort.

SW has brackets for their bumpers, most bumpers mount via separate brackets and can be retro-fitted with new brackets (I believe Demellos can, even though their website does not offer the option.) But some bumpers can be pre-made for that (as Superman said, maybe made taller, ect ect.

Thanks for the replies, I was hoping I wouldnt have to go the custom route but there aren't a lot of options it seems. Superman, I read through your thread and really dig the custom cutouts you went with, looks a lot better than the regular triangle cutouts. Any comment on the weight of the CBI?

Thanks man. I'm extremely happy with it. I'd say it weighs no more than 120 lbs. I can pick it up on my own fairly easily, but It would have been a bear to hang without an extra set of hands or a proper tool to do it with. Just awkward weight.

I have demello and I have it adjusted for my 1.25 body lift but cant get the right number of bolts in there is suppose to be 2 bolts on each side but I can only fit 1 on each side. It looks fine just a small gap but I want to get a bracket made to adjust it and get both bolts in so I feel more comfortable winching with it even though its done fine so far
