Thanks everyone. Supposedly, a local shop has a bumper like mine sitting on the floor here in Nashville. Apparently, they ordered one for a customer and the guy backed out. I think they have it marked way down just to get rid of it. I could check, if anyone is interested.

Thanks Pete! My downfall was going up against a Lightning. I guess there are so few of those things around that everyone loves when they see one that is in good shape. I do wish I had bough blue or red or white, instead of black though. Black vehicles are so hard to keep clean, especially with all the pollen right now.

I'm not sure. I heard that they were trying to get rid of it cheap, like sub $1000. That's not bad for a $2500 bumper!

And, as hard as this thing is to put on and take off, more power to you! If you can get it off the truck (all 12 huge bolts that hold the brackets on the truck plus the 12 huge bolts that hold the bumper on the brackets) then you deserve to have it. Not to mention that the whole thing weighs over 350 lbs!

Thanks! Yeah, I know. I just couldn't afford the Warn 16.5ti right now, and I was tired of the bumper being empty. I will probably buy a Warn winch, eventually, but I honestly think I will be putting a lift on the truck first. I am ready to lift it, but don't want to go too high. I am thinking maybe a 6" with 37" tires and be done with it.

Sorry man, I just called them and they sold it about two weeks ago. From the sound of it, they found a sucker too because he paid more for it than I paid for mine. The cheapest I have found it is here:

Warn Industries 74777 Bumper

That's $2365.43 with free shipping, which is about $500 more than I paid.

I just picked up a Daystar winch isolator. If anyone else has a winch, I definitely recommend getting one.

Thanks guys. Now if I can just get the boss to go for lifting it. She thinks I need to get it paid off first. Two more years is too long to wait!
