Looks like it is probably a little thicker. For that price im sure you could find something better though.

X2 or like nates4x4, you can get a bumper with d-ring tabs and a hitch for less than what looks like a stronger stock replacement

Why are you looking for a new bumper if you have recovery taken care of?

good question, actually because my old one is rusted and i don't like the end caps of the old one, and I'm looking for a clean and stronger bumper then the stock one

Well if you like hit something it should be and I'd hope for 350, even if you don't need recovery I would still look at jrc because they are 100 cheaper

pretty awesome how at that price they still don't even tell you how thick the metal is...
But if your Mr. money bags and over paying for something that's not gonna hold up is your thing then more power to ya.
