    Got any pix of the canopy installed from the inside (specifically the clamps) Also what brand is it?

    I like your truck its a semi big brother to mine :) So the eibachs can handle a plate bumper?..

    Here's the only pic i can find of the inside. Not sure on the brand of clamps. Most of the common ones should work fine.

    And yes the Eibachs are a 620# rated coil. You should actually run a bumper with them or else the ride isnt very smooth.

    One day my friend. Ive put a rear locker on my priority list. But if i find a cheap one i might pick it up. I like the how the TG looks on yours so i might go with that. I would get the hoop too.

    Ever thought about adding a center hoop to yours?

    actually I'm planning on building a custom baja/ winch bumper this summer, so my TG might be available for you to purchase if you like.

    Not sure how that would turn out. Id have to see it in person, but def a possibility. Ive seen someone on here put checkerplate under the wings and i didnt really like it.

    im sure there is a way you could make something cool.

    still would be a nice bumper either way.

    Or he could just leave it...what's wrong with how it looks now? Just spray the body behind it black and you're good to go.

    Have you bent the sides in closer to the body yet? You said that somewhere in your build.


    But i would for sure plate the top of the bumper under the grill

    No, not yet. I was afraid I would kink the corners if I did that, and I wasn't too sure about getting a torch that close to the body (didn't want to take the bumper off, too lazy). Hasn't been a problem, you kinda don't notice it after a while, and if you got some 1st gen fenders off a 99' the body lines would be pretty much flush.
