The deal on Smittybuilts was something any place that is a dealer for them could get, even for just 1 set.

Bumpers went on very easily. I did both bumpers with a winch in about 3 hours. And that was at a relaxed beer pace. Had to drill all of 4 holes. Everything else was a direct bolt on application. Paint is good but as I mentioned they are heavy. Both bumpers adn winch dropped my jeep about 3/4 of an inch. (I running 14aa springs in front and 55in rear) Once I swap out suspension for a lift or stiffer springs the droop will dissapear.
