You can give him a call or send a PM and ask. I think he has enough metal cut for 14 bumpers. Out of those 14, I have no idea how many people have already bought one. I personally know a few people (including myself) who have laid down the cash. It will be first come, first serve. I think RL will let you put down money to reserve one. If so, I would get a loan if you have to just to secure one. Not only is it the only rear bumper on the market, but it's perfect in every way.

I'm riding on the Daystar lift set-up. My Jeep would sag even more than it does now if I had the rear bumper on. I would rather pay in full when I'm ready to purchase. I will be ordering the front bumper and the rear bumper w/ swinging tire carrier. Since the cost would be well over $2,000; I would just asume drive out there to get them and have them installed. Would make for a nice road trip. Wonder how many miles from Somerset, KY to where RL is?

Yeah, but if you wait, there's a good chance that all those rear bumpers will be sold. :shock: The way that Marty was talking, there wont be any rear bumpers offered for a long time. Right now he is offering 15% off his rear bumpers. If I were you, I would lay down some cash to reserve one. You can buy the other stuff anytime of the year. Custom stuff like RL's rear bumpers don't come around very often. He's a fulltime student, not a fulltime custom fabricator. RL is in Colorado Springs, so get out mapquest and start making your plans, lol. :D

Sorry Alex to hijack your thread. :mrgreen:

Tommudd- i'm about a little less then an hour from the turnpike.. i assume you jumped on it at cranberry? However i'll be in pittsburgh from this friday to next sunday.. if that helps. haha. Let me know if your going to be around.. i'll make sure to pack some tools that would maybe, i dont know, help with the heist of our back bumper! it would be worth hog tying to the roof of my goat.

Wildman- I'm willing to talk... maybe exchange some 'info' regarding the projects. I have a feeling yours is going to much more wild then mine.
