    Got stuck here:
    [​IMG]

    Drove me to get this setup (which didn't work anyway - the bumper as I later found out was for a 4-Runner...Don't buy specific things off Craigslist without checking SN with manufacturer):

    I mounted my CB antenna like this somewhere along the way:
    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    And, as my mom's last ditch effort to stop me from really getting into motorcycles, she offered to pay to lift my truck and to pay for my gas. (She REALLY doesn't like the idea of me riding around town and to/from school on only two wheels). So, now it sits higher with OME And Dakars all around.

    It drives just fine on road but there is definitely a difference when slowing down. Braking is more difficult. But it feels *almost* the same now as it did before the bumper

    No I didn't. But I just ran neg to the frame and pos to the battery with a switch in my cab. Really basic - the wires just run on top of the frame and above the wheel wells
