That front bumper looks good. Anymore pictures of that and any details on pricing for front and rear?

Nice! I've got orders in with Hefty Fab for both front and rear bumpers. Like you, I have my reasons for choosing them...a big part was just meeting Chris and his family. They are great, honest, experienced builders and I fully trust that they will build what I need both in form and function.

My front bumper is done and my rear is at least a month out. I'll hopefully get them both at the end of February/early March down in the Springs. I love checking and comparing other rigs, so if you're near Denver, lets meet up when we get our bumpers. I'll show you mine if you show me yours....bumpers that is!:cheers:

I think pricing is on a one on one basis for now. He's taking orders as of now, although he hasn't posted them on his site. I will tell you that it's a great deal for what you get! The pics below are his bumpers he did for a friends taco.

Strikes me that if rear overhang is crucial enough for all that equipment that the exhaust pipe still looks more vulnerable than the hitch.

That's an easy enough fix to cut it down. I had that done. You build up some soot from use on the underside of the bumper but literally "whatever..."
 
Added a couple of things: Ram Mount and a hitch shackle. The Ram Mount has been great. It works really well and takes only a second to mount. You know you've got good friends when they get you a hitch shackle as a gift. :rockon:

I also got an update on the bumper...8 weeks out!

Can you post some more pictures of the RAM mount? From the side? I can't decide if I want to drill or where to do it if I do. Not having a solid mount for the phone is driving me nuts.

RAM mount looks familiar!

Doing the RAM mount upgrade this coming weekend, we'll see how well it works with the iPAD air which is heavier than the Mini obviously.
 
Digging the bumpers, I really like the flush fit at the wheel wells on the rear bumper compared to the CBI. Can't wait to see them!
 
I'd recommend using standard hitch pins instead of locking ones. IME, the locking kind tend to shatter under even small shock loads.

How are you liking Colorado (besides metro Denver)?
