Excellent. I see lots of dudes running the Duratracs too, but after my experiences with them on the Black Monty, i'm a little gun shy.

Plus i'm thoroughly confused at how quiet the STT Pros are, so color me a Cooper fan already haha.

Thanks!

I like that the shackle attachment points are lower (closer the mounting bolts) on the ARB.
If you have to winch with a ****** block or off-angle, it makes a difference.

Otherwise, just get what looks good to you.
I prefer a bumper without the brush guard.

And now I miss my Jeep...

I'm hoping my wife won't need to use the shackle points on the way to work.

Sorry to appear an "askhole," but there ended up being almost $500 out of pocket difference between the two between Ebates having 15% cashback at 4wheelparts for the ARB, and Slee quoting ~$250 shipping for their bumper.

If it were MY truck, i probably still would have gotten the Slee, but my wife didn't have a single bit of preference between the two, so she gets the cheaper one.

I like your use of the word "askhole" not once, but twice in this thread as a self descriptor. Carry on.

Yes, I found it hilarious that you picked him over me. I was going to edit your post and put my name in it but figured that would have made it too obvious.

Disregard Miatas, acquire more brodozers! It's hysterical how much the Montero dwarfs this thing, though.

Bought a paint matched Limited grille before i even bought the truck because chrome is disgusting.
