If they held a bit more and didn't cost an arm and a leg those would make a great floor for a Load Warrior.

you guys are worried about the gap with the Skid Row bumper? just paint that part of the body the same color as the bumper. eric at skid row can even tell you what color of painter's touch matches his powdercoating.
in my opinion skid row is the way to go. my bumper is like a swiss army knife. it's the most versatile bumper out there for the xterra. besides the tire i can put on a jerry can, co2 tank, hi lift, cb antenna and axe and shovel.

Yeah - if you need to carry all that stuff out on the back of the X, the S-R unit is top notch....and its paint doesn't flake off.  I like the tighter tuck in/departure angle advantages of the Shrock unit myself, but I don't need to carry all that extra stuff way out back there, so it works for me.

Just to clarify, our bumper does come with frame stiffeners as std equipment. They are 1/4" thick and 24" long.

 Notice how much thicker the one on the right is.

Hey TJ, so what are looking at? OEM vs aftermarket?

Yeah - the OEM that came with the Nissan Tow Package are on the left, Shrock's are on the right.

New England road salt thinks different. I did not touch up some dings in the powdercoat and now it is coming off everywhere (my fault not Skid Row's). POR 15 party this summer :rolleyes: .

Yeah - it was a reference to one of the OTHER manufacturers, the who who I otherwise like, but who is being robbed blind by their powder coater.
