    Looking for a bumper like yours. Question, I see you have a bar running on the side for protection, is it braced to the frame at all or does it just come out of the side of the bumper? Thanks.

    Hey this is like 10 minutes from my house! I grew up wheeling and riding out there with my pops. Did you have a link to the allen head bolts you were talking about to plug the fender holes?

    yes! I cant wait to see it. Link the front at least. but leaf springs up front arnt the end of the world, just old school.
    the link kits arnt that much more since your doing everything else all ready. but if your doing it on the cheap leaf springs can save you a ton of money.
    so are you buying a full size and a trailer to tow this beast? sounds like your gearing up to build a Trailer Queen.

    I really dont want no trailer queen. And thats why i never commited sooner. But I think i can keep it street legal....look at @thegame @rctoy and @bayareataco

    As far as linking it....might as well. Do it right the first time. I have to replace a few things then i will start piecing it all together. Might go sell a kidney . lol
