This seems to be a simple solution which adds strength to the XJ. Anyone using one or have any feedback?

Stumpalump said:I use one. I had them turn the d-ring hooks up so they would not hang down. I took 3x3" 3/16" square tubing and welded them to the sides for a quick front bumper fab. Nice strong and high clearance. It exposed the very bottom of the factory cross member so I trimed it an inch and plated it with angle iron. I welded in suport tabs to tie the cross member into the Detours mount so the whole front end is rock solid. It worked out so nice that you could not give me a complete after market bumper over one of the Detours backbones with some quick bumperets welded to it.
