    If you're still breathing now, you weren't really really stupid. Where on the sliding scale above that is yet to be seen.

    Just curious, for those with a standard rear bumper....

    When towing, where you do hook the safety chains?

    I have not received mine yet, so not sure what it looks like behind there.

    Thank you all​

    I'm not sure about BFF but on my relentless I have two 1" holes in the bottom of the bumper for my chains to hook to.

    There's a hole on either side of the hitch on the bottom of the bumper. Same as a normal hitch, just pushed back under the truck so its a little harder to get to.

    I know he's done one in the past but then something personal happened which affected his business and his reputation here went south. Seems like he's got things back on track and growing his business again. I can't wait for my bumpers to be done sometime July - August.

    Being as Billy is smaller than most of the other bumper fabricators on here his regular business keeps him crazy busy as it is. I'm sure trying to do the volume required for a group buy would be tough and lead time issues would start to pop up causing some issues like Rob mentioned above.

    Not usually. He did one recently for the front Hybrid bumpers. He had a family member pass away and everyone on TW lost their minds when he was gone for a few weeks.
    He is a one man operation and he is 8-12 weeks behind year round. So needless to say he is constantly SWAMPED.

    Brute Force is worth every penny and the wait.

    Good to know.

    Thanks for the info, appreciate that. I've seen them in person and really like the design and quality. I plan to order one just surfing for a better deal that's all. The wait doesn't bother me and I prefer to buy from quality people.

    Understandable. If you do call and talk to him, you won't get off the phone anytime soon lol. Very easily side tracked and will talk about whatever you want haha

    I don't think he does, but he does give a TW discount. I picked up my bumper from fasten today and its worth every penny i paid for it. His welds are beautiful, and from what I saw he prices his stuff very well. Cost and design are the reasons why I went with Bruteforce.
