Chat GP says that a factory Rubicon bumper with a winch weighs roughly 100LBS more than the factory plastic bumper. Does this sound accurate?

Does anyone know for a fact that the 25's with the Factory winch had different springs or shocks?

I can't tell you exact weight of the steel bumper, but when I took off the factory steel bumper to install my winch, I was surprised as to how light it actually was. I can't remember if I had the side extensions on at the time or not. The winch and plate combined were significantly heavier. The Winch (Smittybilt X20 10K) was 65-70lbs. The Warn winch plate was around 20lbs. I guess 100lbs giver or take 10lbs sounds about right.

Totally agree.
