CBI Offroad products not fully baked

Thank you for the response. I have sent an email to CBI voicing my concerns. I'll circle back to this forum to let you know about their response and any action(s) I will take after that.

Adding to the saga.. Sounds like fog lamps brackets still not available for the Covert Bumper. So if you have Fog Lamps and want to keep them, I would wait on purchasing a Covert Bumper until they have brackets available with the bumper. And if you have a Hybrid with a grill shutter, I would suggest not getting the Covert Bumper. Winch does not fit. CBI now knows this and had no answer. The control unit is going to have to be moved as to not interfere with the grill shutter. Will let you guys know where we put it once we figure that out.. I dont know about other after market manufacturers but i think CBI rushed out not completely proven designs and not really standing behind their product.. Disappointing because everyone Ive talked to has said they are great company and products.. I guess just not on a new platform..

I am disappointed to hear about CBI's customer service response to this and their less-than-functional product release. Until recently, I have been fairly enamored with their products...bummer.

That is a bummer, that leaves Cali with the better option for a front bumper it sounds like. I recieved and installed my CBI sliders last night, non-hybrid. They were a perfect and direct bolt on. Some very simple paper instructions with them would have been nice, you will have some left over hardware on the short beds. Ill attach a few pics, dont mean to thread hi-jack, but the sliders do seem to be excellent quality (just dont order them from one of the 3rd party drop shippers).

Once I got mine mounted they are great.

Oh boy. My CBI frame sliders are finally arriving today (10 week wait). I guess I will see first hand soon enough.

I think they took measurements off of a non hybrid truck so if you have a non hybrid you should be ok. I really think the issues are going to be on the hybrids because they was a small gap between productions of both non hybrid and hybrid
