    Just used the brackets that came with it. There are already holes in the bumper support that line up perfectly, so no drilling required.

    I just started a wheel refinish project. I'm through the worst of it. Prep work sucks. I considered black, copper, gun metal and mag blue. I already have black wheels so ima get crazy this time around and go mag blue. Inspired by the Volk TE37 blue. I would have left them black but the PO did a shitty job scuffing them up for prep. I had to refinish them.

    I finally finished my my wheel refinish project. It was ALOT of work but I'm happy with the results. Ima mount them this weekend with some new tires. I like the blue and I think I got pretty close to the Volk te37 blue.

    I think those are the best looking take offs for our trucks. Wish they made them in a 17”. Looks great!

    I'll never go back to breaker bars and purely hand tools. I wish I was cool enough to have had air tools.

    It's a DCF883 3/8 in drive. I already have some yellow 20v batteries and wanted a relatively small and light 3/8 drive impact. I plan on getting a more powerful 1/2 in drive brushless impact in the future for the bigger jobs.

    Got started tacking in some homemade repair pieces on my RH Rear Upr shock mount repair. Then I ran out of 0.030 wire.

    I'm no professional welder, and the rust doesn't help, so go easy on me. :welder:
