Hey Guys I am thinking about getting a nice front bumper but I am a little concerned about having 200lbs hanging on the front, and I don't want the front end to get worn out. How much weight can our front end hold (4x4), spring wise? Also If I do decide to get a nice bumper then is there anything I should beef up, shocks maybe?

Any Suggestions would be great

Your going to want some front springs to compensate for that bumper!

Though 50lbs lighter, I havent seen much difference in mine. Wink-Wink

I think the front springs are under capacity already so I'd plan on something new up front regardless.

I'm leary of air shocks as it transfers that weight and bounce to their mounting posts.

I'm waiting for some motivated and talented forum memebers to build some brackets for front air bags for us! I'd buy a pair.

Suggestions?

If you do a search on front or saggy springs you'll find that most either add a leaf or switch to some from Superlift.
