Integy Alloy Bumper & Winch

[N1CK]

Has anyone got one of these? What is the verdict?

They do a rear bumper as well. I like the look of the bumper but not sure about the winch.

Thanks

Integy are garbage and that is expensive. Have a look at SSD and RC4WD. :-)

Fwiw that is an integy bumper suposed to be a rear bumper but looks ok on the front, and it has taken a beating for over a year and no complaints.

Friends don't let friends by integy, or rc4wd for that matter

I'd pass as the Integy, some of those are bumpers and brush bars are screwed together and end up breaking or bending.

RC4WD, this is real steel and welded. not pot metal or zinc cast masquerading as aluminum.

A lot of people bad mouth Integy, and I agree their customer service is non-existant, but they do have some unique pieces like bumpers for example. All the bars in this bumper are aluminum not plastic like some other knock off brands. I have actually been very happy with this bumper. I did go through and loctite all the screws.

The RC4WD bumper extends too far forward for my taste and will likely interfere with the approach angle.

I bought two winches and the smaller RC4WD is what fit on my rig. However I had the hot racing bumper. I modified it by cutting out some extra aluminum where the winch mounts to use the roller fairleed provided as part of the winch. Mostly because I like to look.

The pic below shows the bumper I got which I painted with textured black paint to give a soft impression of a bedliner-like covering on the bumper.

Anyhow, I think the RC4WD winch is a better choice. I also like your choice of bumper as it suits the Defender. Watch out for projection though as it can tend to hang up.

Rig comes in at 11 pounds with battery, it's a beast....only weight I have added is that bumper, Warn winch, SSD portal covers on all 4 corners and a set of the rare JConcepts brass ring beadlocks.

I think he was asking how much the bumper weighs.

I run the same bumper with a winch and it’s about 260 grams. Other than a LCG battery tray I run no other weight and it climbs very well. Sometime you have to adjust the approach angle but I love that bumper. Solid heavy protection.

BTW, here is the same model Integy bumper mounted on my #3 TRX4 Bronco with the corner hoops removed.
