I thought i waited a long time.... I placed my preorder July 2017. I cannot imagine waiting 2 years. That is some blind faith!

I got to lend a hand in the initial design document that helped build this. So I’ve seen it develop over those two years. But yeah I’ve been waiting a long time.

Could ship mine too. I like to think I was at the beginning of the pre orders. Contacted them the first day

Yea i ordered a while back...before they announced the pre-orders. I think Satin said I'm 4th. Oh well, it'll be worth the wait, so I'm not concerned with waiting. I've seen it in person right before they fully welded it, and it looks amazing!

Wow!!!

The build quality of this 5th gen rear bumper is astounding. I'm absolutely staggered. I'd love to come visit the shop in SD! I'm an active duty US Navy diver and my rig is in need of a rear bumper...!

Bumper cover looks cool but I really like that latch!

Impressive. I'm curious, how difficult is it to remove and reattach the swing outs?

They’re not intended to be quick detach/attach. You can remove them but the effort required is still enough.

Bumpers that beg the question of “can I remove the arms if I want” usually are bumpers who’s arms weren’t designed right to begin with.

Quick detatch also equals quick theft so that is good to hear.

Also, do you know if a spare can still be in the stock location with this bumper?

People stealing swing arms isn't a thing. So I wouldn't worry about that.

A spare absolutely still fits underneath.

Unfortunately in my area I have to think about easy theft of everything.

Thanks for all the info, I look forward to a video review of this bumper.

2010-2013 fit

[MENTION=111262]pelfreybilt[/MENTION] This will fit the 2010-2013 rear, right? Just want to double check. I know things between early and late 5th gen are a bit quirky.

Correct - thankfully the rear body lines are the same between (10-13) and (14-18)

Wow. This bumper looks amazing as the finished product. I didn't know how to gauge it with the 3D renderings but it looks great on the truck. Maybe one day...
