got a 2008 1500 QCSB 5.7 4x4 ram and i want to add some front end protection but unfortunately since its a 1500 its got IFS and not a SFA. with a steel plate bumper weighing at 180+ lbs plus winch im guessing it might be too heavy. i also dont want to make my front end so heavy that it just sinks or bottoms out when off roading.

my other option is a brush guard but i want something that WILL give me a little bit of front end protection and i know alot of brush guards are junk. i wanna be able to nudge vehicles or run over zombies with my truck (never know when there's gonna be a zombie uprising).

so all in all im looking for your recommendations.....

p.s. i def want a winch....
