RTE, RTE, RTE... atleast that's how I feel. I love my Slimline A-bar bumper. If you search using "slimline," "Rovertym," you will find lots of people love their's. It's a very beefy bumper and it looks AWSOME on my disco. The approach angle is fantastic too. I couldn't be happier. Steve is also a great guy to work with, give him a call. Matt |

The TJM doesn't improve your approach angle...here's a pic of my RTE slimline, notice that the bumper and winch are above the frame rails.it's a pretty sweet set-up |

Frank, Do you have any other photos? I like the slim line look and the small winch guard bar that you have. There no photos with that configuration on RTE's site. Thanks! |
