I currently have a Rustys trail bumper that got me through my first few years of foray into the world of offroading. Never had any issues with it and it is a good unit, but now I am wanting to step up a bit.
I am trying to decide between two of Hanson's units and will be choosing between these two only. I really like what I hear about Hanson quality and workmanship and already have one of their rear tire carrier bumpers coming, so my OCD wants me to keep it Hanson front and rear.
So I am caught between the two and am getting ready to just flip a coin, but figured that I would toss it out here to see what you guys think.
I really like the Stinger because, well, its a Stinger.

I also really like the Pre-runner look too.
To me stingers are ugly. I would go prerunner but that's just me
I like that Hanson bumper, one of these days I will replace my old Rustys bumper I bought used 5 yrs ago in Springfield. It's built somewhat like mine except mine is all tube.

Like the looks of your jeep Fred! I am leaning toward the pre-runner bumper, but I have kids that think the stinger looks cool, so obviously that weigh's in heavily.

Holy Crap.....ever have any cooling issues Fred ??
Looks like 90% of the radiator inlet is blocked in that pic.
Curious as I am considering a winch bumper that would block about 1/2 of the radiator inlet
LOL. I have seen worse stingers than this one for sure.
I like the looks of my Rusty's trail bumper and the pre-runner above is quite a bit like it, but when my 15 year old and 10 year old saw a picture of the stinger, they both started jumping up and down and wanted that one.

"listen here kids, we don't put fake stingers on our jeeps 'round these parts."

Why are you listening to your kids? Put what you want and feel. My dad never listened to me a few years back. He has his tastes and I have mine and he did what he wanted because it was his. Even though he ended up giving me the truck, it was his at the time and did as he pleased and now that it's mine I can change it if I want.

This is my fun that I share with my kids. If it makes their eyes light up, it makes me smile. Of course within reason.

Trying to decide which Hanson Offroad bumper
