    I'd have to look again, but I think the new bumper brackets bolt into the receiver mounting plates which are bolted to the frame.

    When you got time, you can help me with mine.

    I just have to damage the stock bumper enough that the wife will agree on a new one.

    Pat,
    Based on your encouragement of others spending money on truck upgrades aka mods, you should become the official WI TW financial advisor.:thumbsup:

    I ment that as a good thing.

    When Robbie Gordon first started driving, it's said his dad told him: Go out and drive the shit out of it. If you break it, we'll find a way to make it stronger.

    Looks great, Rich! Looking forward to seeing that in person.

    A rear bumper is on my list, but after a front bumper and winch. Did you gain a lot of ground clearance / better departure angle? When I start shopping for rear bumpers that will be priority for me with the long boi.

    The receiver is at the same height, but by the time you get out to the outer edges, it looks to give about 2 1/2", maybe 3" more clearance. I may not drag the bumper on this like the stocker did:
