Looks like you have to relocate your sensors from the bumper to the bull bar. The 5th Gen design has good crash ratings. I have to wonder how something like this might interfere with the engineered crumple zones?

How would this interfere with crumple zones? You're not doing anything structural to the truck. It's a piece of metal before the stock bumper.

The metal that comes with the vehicle is engineered. Connecting other structures may negatively change the way they behave in an accident, and that has piqued my curiosity. The structures that the bumper mount to even have varying thickness and use different alloys.

Even something as simple as Rhino coating bodywork in crumple zones can result in much more energy being passed on to the squishy bits in the cab.
