    I'll try to get a pic this weekend, it basically goes over the 2 outer bolts that hold the bumper on and then bolt to the frame.

    Weee!


    Thanks!
    I roughed up the chrome, primered it, painted it with spray paint. Got lucky with a really close match. If it chips off I'll re spray it. It's held up well so far.

    It's a secret I any tell anyone of my suspension plans. Until its here :D I am impressed with these tires, can't wait to try them out. I've got an auto tranny so I will probably have to re gear. I do a lot of offroad, and highway mountainous driving. So my engine and tranny with probably hate me until I re gear. I'd like to keep my first gear nice and low for crawling. Probably going to go with 4:56 gears...I've heard 4:88s are overkill.

    Sweet. i cant wait to see this thing put together with the bumper and new shoes.

    FYI. the control box will not fit inside the demello in its stock position. You will need to move it back about 2 inches. Otherwise its a great fit.

    Have you thought about what lights you are going to put in the fog holes? I put square duallys in yesterday. I'm still on the fence but i like them so far. Sub'd for more pics!

    Thanks for the heads up on the control box. I just need it easily accesible. Not sure if I'll put anything in the fog holes. if i do ill put in some similar LED's like you've got. I'm planning on putting some more lighting on the front for all the driving I do. Haven't decided exaclty what, yet.

    Got bored today:

    Painted pinch weld
    Removed secondary air filter
    New spark plugs
    Cleaned some stuff
    Applied 7 HP sticker

    my truck only has 5 :O
