i think what most are trying to say is, that even though its a somewhat custom bumper, the mounting holes are going to bigger than need be, to allow for the differences in vehicles, so dont tap it on a rock, it will move on ya.
its not bad, cant even see it, until I point it out, lol but yea I dont have the Tire carrier cross member bar.Ric accidently hit a rock coming down on his armorology bumper and it flexed enough to put a huge dent in his left quarter, but he has the entire rear crossmember out for the tire winch thing.
Yours is still plenty strong, no need to remove the cross member, unless your going to make that a storage area, like I "want" to, just havent done it, lol,
