    Sooooooooooooo..........I kinda bent the crap out of the sides of my home made bumper before getting the chance to internally weld them and gusset them and stuff, so the bumper is all effed up. I'm so busy with so many other things that I don't wanna rebuild it all. So I bought a Relentless Fab DIY bumper today. It'll be nice and easy to weld together when it gets here and I'll feel good about myself at least for having welded it all together!

    :( Yes

    Sucks man. I was heading back from a burger place near me and I blame it on the long travel. I hit a huge dip in the road and the wheels traveled upwards so much that my tires grabbed the edge of the unfinished wings and bent them down like crazy! Had to pull over and take my bumper off and throw it in the back of to truck. Sucks, but looking forward to my new relentless fab bumper!!

    Definitely will check it out if I see it!! And sounds good man. Just lemme know when you're ready!

    Sucks man, sorry for the bad and good news. Hope your tires are okay, especially if they were able to grab the back of the wings.

    Thanks man. I'm glad it happened this way. Tires were totally fine.

    Haha alright come on over and we'll make the switch! My buddy Johnny tells me he sees your truck all the time. He lives on the next block over from you.

    Sooooo I was driving the other day and was hearing this grinding noise when I was turning. Decided to get under the truck and have my wife turn the wheel while I looked for something out of the ordinary. Turns out my LCA uniball bolts had backed out almost all the way. Scary. So that grinding noise was all the threads getting destroyed on the bolt! I messaged @Tracy@All-Pro Off Road and asked for the specs on the bolts. She quickly and kindly messaged me back and had some replacement nuts and bolts sent to me. They got here quickly and I replaced them today. The best part was that my 11 month old daughter helped me do it all! Truck rides great, no grinding anymore and everything feels solid.

    Glad you traced the problem before something came right apart! Cute kid! Already in there getting her hands dirty, teaching her while she's young! :thumbsup::thumbsup: I'll upload some pics of my bumper and send you them, just got it painted and mounted up on the weekend, headed to Oregon on Friday.

    Wow! I'm very glad you found it before it let go on you.

    I love your picture of you and your daughter. I'm a huge fan of family wrenching time. :)
