    I got all the patches mailed out. But I want to say don't thank me. But thank the guys behind getting them done. Corey @InSainFab, Dylan @steezemcqueen and Nathan @SMKYTXN ( TrailToys). These guys are the ones behind the magic. So Please consider them on things you can use on yout truck. Im pretty sure If not now but sometime down the road if there something you need consider what they have to offer. Thanks and I hope you guys enjoy the patches. Peace!

    Oh and @SMKYTXN respond so we could have a link to your website here. Thanks Bud!

    No problem Ray, happy to help a brother out. Just don't go sticking every one of the BBR patches on your headliner.

    Everyone can find my site at http://trailtoys.net. Lots of goodies to be had. :thumbsup:

    That's it! Thanks

    Dylan is working for Sport Truck USA, right? He's out on the east coast somewhere.

    Ok guys I finished the bumper for now. I still need to add the top plate between the top tube and grill. Then the tube over the 30" light bar I'm going to add to the bumper down the road. But I got the measurements I got from Corey so I might add the tube when I tie in the engine cage. I used rust-oleum spray on bed liner. I also used black silicone between the tube and plate to keep water from sitting in the creases causing rust. I only used a little bit. Just enough to keep the water away from the welds.

    No clue. Even though it's a really thin plate the weld also adds weight. It used to be pretty easy to lift off the truck. Now it takes a lot more effort. But let's be honest I'm pretty weak :p I'll change the upper half of the skid later down the road to aluminum once I'm ready with a winch and need to cut the slot out for the line.
