Exciting in here today

Someone entertain me.

 

Question for you high clearance bumper owners: my new bumpers are shipping next week, so plan to install next weekend. What trimming is required to fit the rear bumper and what needs to be used to cut it off?

 

Use a jigsaw to cut the bedside

 

I used an 4.5" cutoff wheel.

you'll get both sides of this discussion; everyone has their own preference. With the cutoff wheel, just have a steady hand. make a practice cut 2 inches below your actual cut so you know how the bedside is going to feel when cutting. Once comfortable, then cut the actual line. use tape to mark it. there is a write up or two on how to do it.

with the jigsaw, the metal may move back and forth a little more, leaving a jagged edge. either way you should take a cutoff wheel or disc to smooth out the line. I then painted the cut with OEM touch up paint to seal it. then put the rubber door trim along the bottom edge so it looked clean. then installed bumper. I have pics on my build thread.

the key is commitment.

 

I used a torch to fit my rear high clearance bumper

 

there's always that option^^^

 

fire

 

Dang

 

Yes

 

Even more yes.

Fuck yeah. Fire.

 

Done. All meets from here forward.
