Here is a link to the bumpers some look very bulky but some also look cool. I wonder if they ship the hardware with the bumpers or if it comes a weak later... I know of a company that can never seem to ship everything at the same time. Also if your considering a bumper this heavy you will need to upgrade your front suspension. Make sure you purchase it from a "reliable" source like Atlantic British, British parts of Utah, Rovers North, and Rover land parts.

^^X2 on all the above.^^

I've got a bumper from a "unreliable" source one time .. the "unreliable" sources foreign exchange student working in the office charge my card twice... had to go buy some hardware to mount it.... a week or so went by and some hardware shows up on my door step. i would have thought this "unreliable" source would have shiped them out at the same time. i also just updated my suspension from a "unreliable" source who told me and i quote " i will go check to see if i have everything in stock hold on..... yes i got everything. so i say can you get it to me by friday? the "unreliable" sources said yes..... few day go by and its friday comes, get my lift go to open some boxs so i could put some custom paint on..... No.... it cant be....... the "unreliable" source would'nt just send half of my lift.


long story short "unreliable" sources is just "unreliable".

I've never heard of it called coal rollin'! thats hilarious. But yeah that looks HEAVY. I would maybe put something like that on an F-250, but not a Land Rover. Even if I was looking for a bumper for an F-250 I would probably just look at ARB instead. I am huge fan of the ARB bumper for the D2, but there are plenty of other fab-shops that would make a solid bumper for your D2 exactly how you wanted!

So, how much do other bumpers weigh? This one is stated at 180lbs. I tried to find the weight of the ARB bumper, but couldn't find it anywhere. A guy will still have to upgrade the front suspension with either brand.

As for the Iron Bull bumpers, I really like the look of the first option that was in the gallery, but didn't really care for the added stuff that is put on the other pictures.
