the unibody will never miss 2 sections of 3 1/2 inch pinch weld.... besides you have to do with the RL one.. and i believe the trail ready one as well (i think i saw a picture of that). no big deal.. heck i cut mine and beat it over in the front fender well for tire clearance and my jeep hasn't fallen apart yet.


this shouldn't even be a question boiler!

I'd have no concern doing mine, just wanted to make sure this wasn't a problem for other people. I didn't know the other bumpers were made the same way. To me it is the only way to go. You get the strongest mount with minimal modification. I'll consider this an answered questions, I'm doing it that way.
