    Yeah I completely agree with the fact that you won't get the same quality of having anybody else do it other than the guy that made the bumper. that's obvious. But it doesn't effect how strong the bumper is or it's purpose. Still looks good to me as well, so I'm happy with it.

    Ahhhh that makes sense, thanks.

    The ambers look more like fire, I was expecting something different. I like the amber

    Brent, is every edge of the bumper welded or did they weld for 2"(more or less) then skip some space and make another weld?

    I've read that the main reason for steel to bow is too much heat. Maybe they stayed on those areas for too long?

    Either way yours looks done well. Hope I can get mine to look as good, plus saving $600 and months of waiting makes the DIY worth it to me :)

    I have asked this before but forgot. Is 3.56 to much back spacing for 33 10.5 15 with 3 inch coil over lift?

    That'll be perfect in my opinion. It depends how far you want the tires to stick out. I have 4" BS and my tires just barely stick out beyond the fender. So yours would push out almost a 1/2" more. I also have 33/10.5/15 tires

    That's a good deal, and the wheels are nice. 15" wheels are my 1st choice.

    Toyos are expensive but a great tire. This combo is saving you a couple hundred $ atleast

    Eh, I personally don't care for the tread pattern and I have no idea how well it works off road.
