Post subject:  ARB bull bar/ frankenlift compatability
The first thing i plan on doing to my liberty is lifting it and adding larger tires, but eventually i plan on adding an arb bull bar and winch. Anyone have any experience with the frankenlift with the bumper? is the front suspension heavy enough that you dont lose any of your lift? can you specify that you will be using it for such an application and receive stiffer rates?

The Frankenlift I believe come with the heaviest OME springs, ARB makes the bumper and the springs, I would think they would work well together.
That said putting 175 lbs extra weight on the front of the rig with the winch and bumper is going to do something over the absence of both.

I installed the Frankenlift with the heavy OME (just ask when ordering) springs last November, and put on my ARB Bull Bar in this July. No winch yet. The bumper alone has not taken away any of the lift from the OME springs. I found the OME heavy springs way too stiff without the weight of the bull bar. The Bull bar is only around 75lbs.
