    A bumper I build over last weekend. It's hard to see but the their are filler panels on the sides. Lights pictures are not the lights it was designed for, just some spares I had floating around

    There's a vendor on here that makes a kit for that. Don't remember the name at the moment, but you should look them up for ideas. Seems pretty straight forward if you ask me.

    The only tough thing is without a body lift the bracket would sit on the big hole in the frame. I'm sure it could be filled with cut out disc welded in.

    yupp, checked them out, and thank you.

    I am debating whether or not to buy his kit. heard it works well. I figure its so easy to make though, why not tryin "fabbin" the project myself and if I cant get it to work, then order his haha. I just like the idea of making it myself personally. atleast I know i have something to fall back on, cuz I def need to relocate it

    Personally I think it's money well spent. You can pay $90 and save yourself a ton of time. And get a cnc cut professionally built bracket

    It's actually cheap enough to where I'd consider just buying it. Solid product. Without plasma cutting or laser, I know anything I build will look like a kid drew it with a crayon on the kid's menu at a restaurant by comparison. Not something I would necessarily "test" my fabbing skills on since it's an important part of the truck as opposed to an antenna mount or hi lift mounts.
