The cab received only a marginal rating last year before they upgraded the crash protection (bars) like the crew

Makes me wonder why people are so quick to cut the bars

I'm still trying to figure out if there are specific part numbers that I can order to add the bars to my 2015 supercab. I've tried looking at the online parts, but can't figure it out (most likely because I don't know what I'm looking at).

To me, if I could add the mod made for the 16's to my 15 for a few hundred bucks, it would be money well spent.

the part of the bars that get cut is about 3-4 inches off the front ones not the ones behind the front tires . they prevent the bumper from going into the tire easily. thats all

This conclusion could not be any more wrong if one tried
