In other buff ass animal news... Think a brush guard would stop this guy?

Quality and function cost money. Couldn't be happier with any of mine.

The meat is greasy and I've never had any 'roo I've much liked. But I've also never tried to grill any myself, and the Aussies are up there with Brits for being bad at cooking.

That is generally true of most mods. And what makes these bumpers so unique. Theyve been physically crash tested to ensure total compliance with air bags, crumple zones, etc. ANCAP, the independent testing agency, actually found they improve crash performance in offset collisions.

That dude would put his head through your radiator then challenge you to a roadside brawl.

Yeah, I'm not trying to argue that getting hit is good for wildlife here. I'm making one that the ARB Summit is the best way to prevent damage from animal strikes.

What if there was a test that could be performed to tell you how modifications change safety...

You ever seen a big red? They're just solid walls of muscle. Obviously I have no idea of his long term prognosis, but he just hopped off into the bush after without any evidence of injury.

All brush guards do is exacerbate damage. If you want actual protection, you need a full replacement bumper. The entire point of buying a Ranger is that it's been Australia's best selling vehicle since 2011, and that country's entire aftermarket is available for it. The government there...

Ordered a set! Thanks for making these. I'll report back once I have them on.

Every 4x4 should have a winch.

Yeah, don't put them under the truck. Should be easy just to keep them in bed.

Yeah, the Minis are very mini. Before I got my first GFC, I was able to squeeze my Mk2s inside the bed, tucked between the wheel arch and top rail. Just secured with a raft strap. Ate up zero space.

Yeah, the Mk2s are the all rounders. Minis are for Subarus and Extremes are for professionals. Honestly, nothing else works as well. There's a reason they're the size they are, etc etc. Avoid the knockoffs, they're made from plastic, not nylon, and only last a single use as a result. You...

You should really check out Maxtrax.

You need to be able to pull the weight of a fully loaded truck, plus the resistance of anything it's stuck in, plus a safety margin. 1.5x GVWR = 9,075 lbs for our Rangers. Winching improperly, or with inadequate equipment, can and does kill people. It's really important that we all...

Ideally you want the front and rear wheels traveling through identical tracks. Or, if there needs to be a difference, it should be as small as possible. My 200 series is .25 inches wider in the front than the rear and it's unnoticeable.

You want a winch to offer 1.5x GVWR if you hope to use it safely/effectively. Definitely an upfront cost attached to the real deal, but they last forever, so you'll be able to move them across multiple vehicles. The Warn VR Evo 10-S on my current Ranger was originally installed on my first...

Trucks looking great. Don't understand the stud/spacer issue. I'm running those exact spacers and they entirely contain the studs... Edit: I was gonna throw my summer wheels/tires on this weekend anyways. Will take photos when I do.

I've got extra two inch reverse lights in my bumper wired to the stock reverses and pointed directly rearwards. Def helps a ton, but unless you also live in the boonies, you definitely want a switch. I also have two two inch floods mounted on the rear of my GFC high up, angled down, on a...
