    Hahaha thanks man! I'm pleased with how it turned out! You thinking of doing a plate style at any point. You have a tube style rear right now right?

    For anyone getting any ideas off of this bumper, whatever you do, don't copy the original latch that I had cuz it suuuuucked!!! I was wheeling and did a donut and it broke loose and my swingout came open very violently! Scary. I bought a DIY weld it yourself part from 4xinnovations which is the best latch on the market in my opinion and cut the old crap off and welded this new guy on close to the beginning of this year

    Would you ever make up dimensions/plans for all the parts and stuff you used?

    Honestly probably not because I just slapped a bunch of stuff together and tried to make it look as nice as I could. Mine is basic. Just a 4x4x3/16 tube and build off of that
