I welded a reciever tube onto it, and used a hitch shackle.

Agreed compared to the D90, but the D90 is an off road vehicle, the DII is a grocery getter with capabilities. Here is the Tactical Rovers on a member EB18t or something's old DII. Plenty of approach angle, but again, it's the departure angle that kills the DII

Their site is a bit behind as they are putting most of their stuff on Facebook now, but basically get them a picture or drawing of what you want and they will work with you. Not sure this bumper is on the FB page either, but you can see this same bumper with different bull bar setups there. Some of their bumpers I do not like, but when I spoke to Denny at HLC Fab he told me they make what the customer wants, so they may or may not like the look either, but the customer did, and this it who they created it for. So having said that I have been looking at the pics of their bumpers and others and sent a few to Denny and told him what I liked about each that I wanted in mine and he gave me a quote for what I wanted. I know it is nice to pick one from inventory like ARB and many others, and really makes it a little easier, but I like the way I can make mods for my purposes to get what works for me.
