Rear Bumper/Tire carrier
I let my cousin pull the trigger on a staangs fab bumper before I bought his stuff so I could see it. I think that swayed me a lot, theres many things on that bumper that isn't listed that I think should be. for example, its designed so the only way the winch can be removed is with the bumper off that way nobody can steal the winch. Trust me when I saw that I thought "Wow thats really clever, i wonder if i can do it" 2 hours later and I still wasnt able to get even one bolt out nevermind the winch.
Its stuff like that that makes me loyal to Staangs stuff, however my lift kit probably wont be from him. I'm going rough country on that, not anywhere near as good quality but I simply cant afford the quality right now. Staangs 6 1/2 inch kit with his Long arms included is about 2400$ and thats the shortest kit he has right now I think. I only need 3 inches and RC has a full leaf pack one for 750$ however its stock control arms and not the same quality.

I don't know about the rattling but I've seen his in person and it was a solid set up. matt had nothing bad to say about it and that's the way I'm going to go. If you go to detour's website he's got all the installation instructions there so you can see what it's like.

Yeah, the only drawback is that you keep the original bumper. I was thinking of going with a heavier-duty bumper. But at this point, I think it's more critical to gain space by putting the spare on a carrier. I guess I could put it on the roof, but the balance and weight make me hesitant.
