I think I installed this lift just in time. I hit a deer on the way to work this morning and caught him with the bottom left corner of my bumper. 2" higher and he would have hit the plastic "bumper", daytime running light, and my fastrack transponder (bridge tolls). Other than a seriously dented license plate there is no other damage. The deer wasn't so lucky - he was thrown into the median and then rolled into oncoming traffic on the other side.

This was a two lane (in each direction) road. The speed limit is 45 and most people are doing 55-60. I was in the left lane and a guy on a motorcycle was in the right lane and we were side by side when the deer ran out. The motorcycle guy is a lucky SOB because if that deer had come out 1 second earlier he would have hit it. He's also lucky I knew he was there and didn't try to swerve to avoid the deer.

And now I am really glad I didn't drive the BOSS this morning!
