Road Armor Titan...questions

I looked over the site, barely any information is avaliable on the Road Armor website. I'll be buying one, more than likely in the next month or two. I do have a few questions though...

How much does this weigh? I've heard it's 255 or something, but no one seems to know for sure.

Will this make my front end sag down at all? I do have the stiffer TRD shocks on my rig since I have the TRD edition

What is better for the lighting, KC, or PIAA?

Does it look ok without the top lights installed? I have yet to see a picture of it in which no one has the top lights...I've only seen pictures where the bottom lights aren't installed

That's it for now, thanks in advance!

Try this thread. Some info on the Road Armour bumper and links to their site and a thread on this forum at the top of the Road Armour info.

The problem is I can't go off his ride. He has different shocks than me, but I'll ask him if his front end sags, thanks.

TY Landrover that link helped a ton

Re: Road Armor Titan...questions

Of course it's going to sag, think about how much more it weighs than the stock bumper. People have noticed sagging even with the AllPro bumper which is only 86lbs or so. If you don't want a lot of sag then you're going to need to upgrade the suspension with some OME heavies or something. Good luck!

Re: Road Armor Titan...questions

I agree with TiFJ ,you have to get better suspension up front or you will have significant sag

Re: Road Armor Titan...questions

Now that I've actually given this thought, this would be rather expensive to get everything together, and make the FJ still maintain it's "superb" ride comfort...total would be around 3,000 if not more since I would need the lights, AND the new shocks, and then installation...I'll goto this one down the road later, but thanks for the info! I will need it in the future!
