I was really interested in that ARB bumper/bull bar until the off-road shop told me it weighs 172 lbs. [Vs. ~50 lbs for the capable and 80 lbs for the modular] Add on a winch and you have even more weight.Thanks, that is badass and if I were planning on any Elk bowling that would be a great choice.
That's not a deal breaker if you really want that capability. Still, together with other add-ons you might install on your Bronco, it could help push your vehicle's empty weight closer to the GVWR than you might like.
I'm waiting for the new IAG capable bumper tall bull bar to come out. It won't be as impregnable as the ARB, but it should offer decent protection for the front end of your Bronco if you're unfortunate enough to hit a deer.
