Stubby bumper I just finished but you can see how far back it ties in

Definitely run some extensions down the side. I had an ARB bumper a few Jeeps ago only attached with the stock bolts... few good tugs and it ripped it completely out of the unibody on one side... bent up the other side and crunched a fender. Have not had any such issue after getting the extensions with my JCR bumper.

I'm in the exact same boat... Miss the crap out my jeep, also drive an 07 3rd gen now and just bought an 05. I love the Cummins life but sure miss the jeep life. I feel you buddy, I feel you.
