What skid plate is that exactly?
See previous message…..
Don’t know about the lights question// lots of room behind the bumper- depends on the lights.

Can you snap more pictures of your setup for scale purposes just a bit further back and from the front and front/side angles please?

Thank you!
So same angles but further back with entire truck in the picture?

I got this one. It's a rugged ridge ridge full width Spartan High clearance. I absolutely love it and love the fact that it fills in the gap between the bumper and fenders. Had mine for about 16 months now.

I was able to put the Mojave skid plate back on but did have to grind two notches in it. Whey you go to put it back on it will be pretty obvious where you need to notch it. Marked it with a sharpie and notched. Fits up tight.

I got this bumper, struggling to get my winch mounted, as there seems to be very little space for the wires... would love to see some close ups looking straight down so I can see what ya all did. Thanks!!

Here you go, it is tight, alot depends on where the wiring is for your winch.

Installing this was way easier than removing the OEM plastic bumper. My OEM Rubicon skid fit just fine with no modifications. I really like the way it looks and will throw a winch in it at some point. I feel it is plenty beefy for the type of off-roading I do. It weighs in at 65 lbs which I feel is reasonable.

Do you guys think a 38” tire will fit with this full width bumper?

Im having a feeling I’ll be running into issues with the rubber meeting the tips/ends of this bumper.

You guys will know best since you can see the clearance best in person.

Looking forward to your reply ??

I have 35's with a 1" level (no lift), and it looks like I could get away with a 37" tire. I've had mine out on some light wheeling last weekend and at nearly full flex I had plenty of clearance (sway bar was not disconnected). I'm not sure if a 38 would fit without a 2" lift or full level kit.

Thanks for the tip. Happy I can keep that plate now. Do you have a picture or two of it?
