Dennis, I got home tonight and my ProGuard was here waiting for me. I placed my order with Deb on Wednesday and it was here today. Looks good! Can't wait to put it on. Thanks again. :up:

Be sure to check your mpg before and after. I got about 1 mpg more w/ the Progard.

When installing your progurad do you put the end buy the bumper under the bumper or over the bump? I put mine under....

I'm not saying you're not, Charlie, but that's pretty lofty gains.
I know several members are convinced of mileage gains.
I'm kind of a skeptic.
They sure do look sweet!:P

Ok, to be fair, I only tested it once. With my current set up, I got 21 mpg. After the Progard, I got 22 mpg. This is a "road trip" weekend so I will try to clock it again and report back.

Does it correct that "rear bumper sag" ?

I have been told no. But it should any further sagging.

Does it correct that "rear bumper sag" ? Yes. Installed correctly, your sag is gone.
And...It limits damage in low speed impacts, ask me how I know.
And...It adds stability to the bumper cover OTR.
I have followed Marauders OTR, both with and without the ProGuard in place. What I call the "sail effect" is cured by the ProGuard. If they have SS inserts, it's even more valuable at twice it's cost, 'cause that constant "flashing" in my eyes made me sleepy. Everything stays tucked up, steady, and neat.
MPG? Well, your results may vary, Mike, but I don't feel like my azz is dragging in the wind, or, prone to scooping up road debris anymore. Once I found a Mickey Dees shake cup up under my bumper, it was my "last straw".
Y'all buy what you wanna buy, but this is one kick-azz mod.
Thanks, Dennis!

Mike,
I installed mine last summer before MV3. I did it myself, it was easy, and I like the results. Once installed, it tightens everythying up in your rear end...kind of like a good "glute" workout. Your MM will no longer "bust a sag".
:D

Hehe...I think I could make a "wife joke" out of this discussion, but not if I want to stay married :argue:
Thanks for the input Mat!

Thanks for clearing that up guys. I was told before that it wouldn't change the sag. It is nice to know that it will now.
