I will say it took forever to get this thing and at times I was doubtful I'd ever see it, but now that it's hear I'm very pleased with it. It is HEAVY!! Shipping weight was 235lbs. and the pallet they made to ship it on might have weighed 10-15lbs tops. It made the TF HD springs ride so much smoother too which is a huge plus as well.

See, this is why people should get Rover products for their Rover product. This looks 1000 times better than any of the H**p bumpers posted up, and is likely built a ton better too.

Congrats, you just bought the most solid part of your truck.

Thanks. It's definitely the most solid part of the rover now.

Still debating the addition of a skid plate later on. It would honestly I feel like be mainly for looks because the panhard and steering rod kit is all HD.

Anyone with experience...is a skid plate worth it or is it more trouble to wrench around than what it's worth?

Well you were my inspiration. The lights are great. The minis are much brighter than stock and Warn's are crazy bright. I just haven't had much time to get the Warn's adjusted just right yet though. Still trying to find the happy medium between low and high beams.

those minis are unreal...I recommend the covers for the warns. They cost but still cheaper than a cracked lense.

Yea I've thought about ordering the covers but my wallet is still hurting from just buying the lights. Those covers cost as much as the hella700FF's on my other D2 that came with covers!
