    It looks like some of your headlight/grill brackets aren't much more than some bent pieces of flat stock. If this is the case, I would definitely reinforce them.

    The factory grill and headlight tabs will crack, especially with your driving. A bunch of mine cracked so I went back in and reinforced all the brackets and drilled 6 or so new holes on the grill and headlights. Just make them as solid as possible, any bracket movement/vibration will lead to cracking. Mine are all tied into each other now, no wiggle room whatsoever.

    its all 3/16th plate.. i mean its pretty damn sturdy soo im confident itll hold up fine. every piece is connected to eachotother and nothing is attached to the cab at all. the truck moves back and forth before any movement on the headlights or anything to so like i said im sure itll be fine. ill know sunday when i take it out.
