    You should have just held on to it with your left arm hanging out the driver's window.

    x2 on the stinger shape. You either have to have a flat spot on it, or make it more V shape my mine is. I think they look a bit strange as a perfect circle.

    This was my original plan. But now I'm hearing that bumpers with swing outs tend to rattle. Can anybody with a swing out chime in?

    My swing out doesn't rattle, but the hi-lift on there does.

    The only issue is my CBI is a shitty design and I snapped my swing-out in half.

    I used to hate noises, then I got poly bushings...I've given up on noises.

    Getting a new sound system soon, should do the trick.

    So I just installed 1.25" spider trax so I would no longer rub on the frame but now rub the pinch weld. What's better, trimming it or bfh? Can't cut enough to weld yet though.
