I've decided I want JCR bumpers. I don't think I'll ever get a winch.
so I'll probably just get the DIY front and rear bumper. keeping it simple and effective.

Same conclusion I came to about needing a winch. I'm gonna do front/rear receivers with a winch on a receiver plate. No weathering/wear on the winch when not in use, can't be stolen, and keeps my front end shorter.

I just don't see how i would ever use it unless I'm by myself which isn't going to happen. plus later on if i end up getting one. i end up getting one. or a new bumper. when i can better afford it.

BAAZING! so true though. my buddy learned the hard way
Buddy: "Dude these tires are brand new, still has nubs on them!"
Me: "yeah? so they are making the dry rot in the tires now instead of waiting?"
Buddy: "what?"
Me: "yeah these are almost 20 years old, good news though they were garage kept"
Buddy: "**** you"
