Arb question.
I will begetting a ARB Bull bar bumper installed soon, MY runner is going to also have the performance products one inch lift springs put on as well. MY question is this. Do any of you who currently have an arb bumper also have the performance products springs? If so DO you think the truck rides ok with that combo? What should I expect?

What year,make and model are we talking about? You may want to beef up the front suspension a little more than just a 1" lift spring. Those ARB's are a huge difference in weight compared to the stock front bumpers. I personally don't have one, but I'm sure someone will chime in on how much they actually weigh, and which springs you should go with.

Adding what vehicle your vehicle to your sig is a good idea.
Anyway a slightly stiffer spring when using an ARB is a good idea. I have got an '05 Taco TRD with a Daystar 'leveling" Kit, with the weight of the ARB bumper (approximately 120 lbs give or take) on for 10 months I am noticing some front end sag. I will be swapping out the stock springs for some OME in the future...
Dunno if you are paying someone to install your bumper, but it is pretty straight forward, it took me about 3-4 hours to do mine with a floor jack and basic hand tool...

Thank you for the input, I don't plan on using a winch, so that should help with the weight a little. Is this hunk of metal going to slow my truck down noticeably?
