Sorry for crappy pics, but just got bumper back from powder and snapped off a couple pics.

Hoping to provide some details, install pics and impressions vs OEM in the coming month.

Yeah, still haven't installed mine yet since the weather in CO has been so cold and then on the warm weekends we get outside to play. It's still going on and I'll have a write-up to follow.

@EVO MFG

Finally got around to install and I'm super happy with the outcome! I've never owned an EVO MFG product before and I am very impressed with the fitment. The holes lined up perfectly and the body lines were uniform... no enlarging or elongating mounting holes with a grinder bit to make it fit.

Here's a couple stats:

1) OEM Steel Rubicon bumper with bed sliders/tow hooks/receiver = 125lb
2) EVO H&T w/ receiver = 67lb (raised the center of the hitch by 8")

I'll get some more pics as this was a late night and I didn't have a chance to touch up the white color bed panels (with black paint) that are now exposed.

OEM hitch height = 23" center from ground

EVO hitch height = 31" center from ground (+8" of additional clearance)

EVO H&T hitch reuses (4) OEM long bolts thru frame + (2) OEM short bolts at bottom of frame. Also included is a bracket for the trailer wiring harness and backup sensor plugs. The kit also comes with back up sensor brackets if you have OEM sensors (pictured below)

All parts included with EVO H&T bumper

Need just a little rattle can of black paint to cover the white color showing thru at the corners.
