    Ah, I rememeber now.

    Man, it doesn't appear to be the easiest to get a hand/pin In or out of there at lightning speed....but then again, doesn't look too bad.

    PIC?!?!??!?!

    Currently I have a rather big locking one that uses a key, that is kinda fiddly. I could just go to a simple bent clevis pin style with a spring clip.

    Nothing too exciting... maybe a little rust
    If you have this bumper though you shouldn't need to swap out for a hitch mounted recovery shackle, the bumper has 2 recovery points for shackles built in.

    Jesus fuck, that's revealing. Looks like the tire is touching, no?

    Also looks like it might be possible to reroute/modify the 7-pin harness to go above the tube to improve access to the pin and clip. Heck, looks like even if you hooked up safety chains right now, they might interfere with or even damage the harness.

    Could possibly ask Billy to cut an angle down on the back of the receiver tube and that large gusset beneath.

    Right, I was thinking about that too. But I would still want to remove my ball hitch, which will have about a 6-inch drop at least.

    Ahh, yeah I guess that is true, not giving you much additional clearance at that point.

    Super easy!! The King resi bracket is in the way so I had 2 drill a hole thru it 2 get the frame reinforcement bracket bolt thru it and the frame. Billy at BruteForce is awesome 2 talk with and answers calls and texts whenever he aint weldin'!! His work is really awesome, strong solid welds and super strong design with the supports bracket!! The smittlybuilt 9500 xrc mounted up no problems

    Gosh. I'd love to shed a few pounds up front. I have that same bumper on order but with a swing out. Today marks 12 weeks of waiting....
