HAHA! Oh Will.... I hope to have an answer on this in a few weeks. I think I can make the current bumper work great, with a "Power Wagon insert", I plan to design.

Could always just run two fairleads I think it will be fairly easy for you to make her work don!! I think factory p.wagon fairlead is only 1" further forward then cummins intercooler maybe...?....

Shouldn't lose that much pull power by running the factory fairlead and one on your bumper if any.

I'm excited to see one done with a nice winch hook out the front!

What you need is a runway model.

Ya some long travel hemi soft coils would be awsome... Id imagine dons rear coils he makes for diesels would be fine as the rear tire weights are probably close to the same ?

Pretty sure if you upgrade the shocks to dons the stock coils will want to fall out like the fourth gens and third gens...

Did someone buy one of these bumpers yet? Lol

Don, let me know about the status of the bumper. I need a new one and would rather add some more Thuren Fabrication parts to my truck

I contacted them about a month ago, Aaron told me that they do plan to offer a Power Wagon compatible winch bumper, hopefully sometime later this year.

I am holding off doing a bumper in hopes that this comes to be. Great looking bumper and perfect for our trucks with the winch provisions already provided for.

Well I just spent a grip load of cash on Dons stuff. All of the parts are here and th instal is going down thurs and pick up is fri. I met the Mercenary off road guys at the Off Road Expo in Ventura last weekend and they said they would install the Thuren and White Knuckle components. I am going nuts waiting. The customer service that Aaron, Don and Ultimate Truck / Mercenary Off Road have had with me is absolutely top notch.

Yeah, that's it. Similar to a Mercenary.

Peter, does the new bumper come with a fender?

I think your sprinklers are causing your bumper to rust.
