    Never a bad thing. Lol.

    What winch setup are you going to be going with? Hidden, cradle, or bumper?

    Well not much has happened to the truck since my trip out east. I did source a few deals and I need to install some things. Cvt awning, Pelfreybilt gas tank skid and hopefully make some room for the tires.

    Kind of truck related I built a bike swing out.


    Got a bike rack for $50 and turned it into this. Still need to clean it up and paint but so far so good. It isn’t perfect but it was cheap and it works. Lol

    So looking at a Shrockworks steel bumper. But something with enough deflection, good symmetry to the rest of the vehicle and a single hoop that runs around the grille profile but not in front of it.

    Like this. Except powder coated black and no lights covering the grillefd5af28e9a39da9378c1084cb7cb59a3.jpg

    Nice. Can’t go wrong with a steel bumper. Can always weld to them and if they bend your not screwed.

    Well after wheeling I have some work to do

    Bumpstops are gone.

    Got really lucky with this rock and it wedging itself under the gas tank strap.

    Some pictures from the trip

    Also here is a video @Joe23 made that has a lot of my truck in it lol. He has some time stamps that show some climbs.

    Jesus. That’s not to shabby. Get the bp blaster done early so the bolts just come apart. Definitely a nice haul though.
