    I'm back. I never really left. Just hit some bumps in my road of a life.

    Are wives/girlfriends allowed to come to these meets or should I leave her in the kitchen ask her to find something to do on her own?

    I'm looking at the direct replacement bumper.

    I'm between the ATO and the All-Pro design.. they look pretty comparable in weight, options, and price after shipping.. the all-pro is cheaper but more expensive to ship to MD. I mainly want it for rear end protection. I see stuff get knocked around and destroyed everyday at work and already have a few scratches and marks from driving around construction sites.

    Hadn't heard of any problems with the ATO bumpers though.. i'll have to look into that. Thanks for the heads up!

    There's two bolts and two rivets holding each strut on each side. Not hard but you do need a rivet gun. I can help you out if you need me to bring one. Just let me know when you need it.

    I think more have had trouble with the H/C with swingout. The spindle and everything doesn't hold the weight of the swingout with tire, gas, etc.

    I don't think there's been any problems with the non-H/C version but I also haven't researched it really.

    If she wants to hear a bunch of guys tell dirty jokes and talk about trucks, then I don't see why she shouldn't be allowed to join. My wife says she doesn't want to go, but I have to bring her wings or something.

    Sorry I wasn't paying attention. I got the link in my box below. Also, I am going to the meet tonight so you can see it if you are there.

    Edit: Any reason to drink a beer and fuck around with a truck is enough for me. I ain't a mechanic, but I can put some shit together.

    I just put another fuse box in the truck too, finally decided I have too many custom electric-type mods and I never was a fan of the fuse tap. The whole thing cost me about $25 and an afternoon to put together.

    Now I just need to do the billies and AAL, ROTOPAX mount, and Lights that I got sitting in the living room pissing my wife off.

    I'm going to have to check that out. I am starting to put ideas together for my dual-battery and extra fusebox setup.

    I was planning on going with the IBS kit. The two "issues" I need to work out are where to place the second battery and what fuse block to buy and where to mount it. I would like to put the second battery, fuse block, and my winch solenoid all on the passenger side as the driver side is pretty full with all of the Supercharger intercooler components being mounted in that area.

    You could always mount it side by side with the existing battery using the dual tray.

    Also, I will have to dig it up again, but somewhere on this site shows how a guy mounted it in the bed.
