    One can assume, thats my next step. The frame mount is ultimately the weak link, Id like to think maybe the relentless bracket would have helped but it probably would have pulled it out anyways.

    The plan is to cut the mount off, sleeve the frame, along with a thick mounting plate and stronger bolts. That should be able to handle the abuse

    Yea I'm glad I upgraded my bumper support brackets to the brute force fab ones. But now I'm thinking I want to have Mark beef up the frame mounts on top of the BF brackets..

    They probably have the best bracket available since they use gusseting around the bracket to prevent the bracket bending itself. At this point I just want it to be strong enough that I don't have to do this again. I need to talk to mark about making some link brackets for me

    I still don't think the brute force would handle that with how it is designed. But I could be wrong.

    My stock gears haven't broke :p

    Yeah I'm not willing to waste my time seeing if the bracket works anyways.

    Good call. Those brackets only help to an extent, still a huge weak spot that should be taken care of. Something I need to do, just haven't winched hard enough to force me into doing it!

    Most probably won't winch that hard but it can always happen, even if someone accidentally pulls you too hard from the front it can happen


    Whenever I have time to get around to it I'll make a post, for the time being I'm just going to straighten it out so it doesn't look goofy

    New gears installed today, letting the gasket maker do its thing overnight. Fixed the bumper mounts, both sides have cracks on the frame mounts. Not sure how bad they are but I'm sure another good pull and they will be done for so I need to get my frame ends sorted before I do any hard wheeling again.
