I just wanted to know if new t-bars are realy necessary when a bumper like the calmini one is put on an X. I have had this bumper on since March and i don't have a winch and don't plan on getting one(i have the cover plate). Am i indanger of snapping the t-bars or will they just wear out faster? What will not replacing the t-bars do?
thanks
Robert

Your front end is going to wear out a little bit faster then the rest. That is alot of extra weight your luggin around. If you havn't done so already...beef up your shocks at the least. Good Luck! cool

Let it ride. Eventually you may find that they just can't support the weight very well, but there's not much point in swapping them until you really need to. The stock ones will do just fine for a while yet.
