Looks pretty good! It's nice to see another rear winch option too.

My Rebel-Off road rear bumper is an absolute beast! The thing is so over built that you'll total the truck before you do any appreciable damage. It's a tank! Plus built in recovery points, light mounts and flat bottoms for easy sliding over obstacles make it very capable off-road.

The optional step/bed sliders are very nice, also crazy overbuilt, and provide a nice big platform to both help protect the paint and give a nice step. With the built in step on the rear bumper, it's super easy to get in and out of the bed. Both have additional traction-plates that I also bed-lined to give maximum grip.

My only two complaints are relative: I wish they had cut out's in the bumper for the factory lights like my old Go-Rhino bumper, it would have been the perfect finishing touch. Ended up using a Quadratec light instead of the provided "bolt lights".

And the cost: it ran me $1500 all said and done, so very spendy, but I can completely see why after getting and putting it to work. It was completely worth it, so not really a complaint.

I have a jcw rear bumper... I guess the same as the body armor bumper. I like it for the price... Back in 22 it was 330

Very nice!
Maybe I am missing it but I don't see on your website how to order the optional skids or hidden receiver. I saw your YouTube vid that compares the two and it mentions the receiver is a prototype. Is it perhaps not yet available? Also are the "Skids" the aluminum plates visible in the pic above? Would like to know if/when it would all be available as well as pricing. I am interested in the one that requires cutting. Thanks!

I really like my body armor rear bumper. It’s solid, fits well, I like my optional bed side steps, and I had a place to put aux back up lights. It works with my factory back up sensors, hitch, and license plate lights. Plus, it’s subtle. It’s not crazy looking like a lot of them. I have shackles on it now. I forgot to add those before the pics.
