    Nope, retaining my shock towers I currently have.

    New rear frame getting tacked in, coming along nicely and should all be done early next week.

    Moving the frame out so it doesn't taper in so the shackle will go through the frame and not hanging out off the side. Kinda like a 1st gen.

    Most people that have a custom bumper run tube of some sort. Some have a full-on bumper, others have just a single tube (like me) and some just have the spare tire carrier. I'm sure someone out there has a plate rear, but its rare.
    Tube is lighter and easier to work I think
