Seems these get the least love. Most either go stubby or full width. I would like to see some mid width pics. Are these the best of both worlds or the worst of both worlds?

Fishbone Midwidth. Easy to mount, solid and the packaging was top notch.

I really like mine. I wanted subtle, close to stock appearance, but beefy and I think this bumper nails it. LOD midwidth

Looks good. Couple questions:
Are you using factory lights or the ones they included?
How thick are the shackle tabs?
Did you get the optional frame tie in brackets?

I just ordered this rampage rock rage mid width front bumper . It was a great price at $404 CDN . Most bumpers in Canada are I. The 750-1000 range . I also ordered a Smitty XRC 9500 winch that was also $404 CDN . I will be mounting these amber side shooter lights as well , they have great reviews and are priced well at $61 each . I will be posting pics of the install when all the parts arrive

@FLUndertaker

They dont include lights, the bumper is made to work with factory fogs which is what I did.
How thick are the shackle tabs?
I've never thought to measure them, they're plenty beefy. I'll try to get to it today.
Did you get the optional frame tie in brackets?
No, I have no plans to pull my Gladiator behind a RV.

@rr11 Zero issues, super easy to mount, very solid. It doesnt stick out as far as you think.

Extremly happy. With winch it dropped the front end about .5".

Thanks for the info. I have looked at bumpers on line and had decided that was the one I wanted but it's always good to hear from someone with real experience with the product before spending the money.

Steel or aluminum?

I keep waffling on which I want. The aluminum is 100 lbs lighter and no rust vs the strength of the steel.
