Is this a "unicorn" request? I really fear it is. I've found nothing out there, yet...

Looking for a bumper like Cali Raised Stealth (& I need that bull bar for brush) -- but seemingly every time "not compatible with Pro skid plate or TrailHunter"?

I like the Pro styling, top to bottom - do not want to remove or cut up the skid plate. Not sure I can even find a bull bar that fits a Pro? My truck is used heavily off road - brush guard is at minimum is desired - but man, I'm not going ugly (and much is "ugly" out there - sorry "Ranch King" style grille guards etc are that )

I have the exact same quest for my Trailhunter and had given up for the time being. Am in search of a low profile bumper, smallish winch, bull bar plus bars on the sides that wrap around the headlights to protect from at least hitting a small deer. Appreciate that you have posted this. I may resort to going to 4 Wheel Parts since we have one where I live in Ventura to see if they have any recos.
I know I could get a better price on my own, but I don’t know how to reinstall all the sensors without honking up everything. Right now they are having half off installation which is normally $150 an hour.

Those damn mother effin' deer! About a month ago, one glanced off my Armordillo brand grille guard as it jumps out in the morning - zero damage. So much for "those don't work" - yes, I was not going 75 and a full square hit, still it worked. :clap:

Yes, Lauren, I'm afraid this is a "dry hole". But SHOULDN'T BE! Hope someone has some insight- as the product we both want doesn't seem to exist?:frown:

Oh well…The M-F-ing deer can’t buy armor either, so I guess it’s fair…til a designer gets us to be the first guinea pigs to try their new offering that satisfies our wish list.

I would think a prerunner style tube bumper would work best for deer. DOM tube can take a good hit as long as it's got gussets. You could also get a couple tubes bent to cover the headlights and grille rather inexpensively from any cage shop to make it protect more. Alternatively, a guy with enough patience (or colorful enough vocabulary), basic weld skills and a trip to harbor freight for a bender could do it on the cheap.

My only concern with that one is that it weighs a lot, and I will probably feel compelled to change my suspension. I love the performance of the stock OME Trailhunter suspension.

That is a high bread overland bumper. Steel winch tray and aluminum outer shell. The whole bumper without a winch weighs less than eighty pounds l.😁
