    if your getting rubbing on the frame then i would assume wheel spacers would help. and how big of a spacer just depends on how bad you are rubbing. u may be able to get away with 1.25" thatd give it a nice look too.

    Im not a fan of wheel spacers. Its hard on your bearings. But you shouldnt need much. How much is it rubbing?

    Totalled it...and by it...I mean another car...well she totalled herself on me.

    Got blasted by some chick who didn't see me slowing down/ stopping for the car in front of me to turn right.

    I'm very impressed with my truck's bumper, and how much damage it did to her :eek:

    It basically really sucked, I jumped out, ran back and pried her door open so she could get out. I walked her to the curb, as she was coughing from both of the airbags' smoke and white powder. Shitty deal.

    Right?! That bumper did WORK.

    She wasn't hurt, just shaken up. I'm impressed with how blasted she got, and how little damage I saw. Anyways, stoked to see an insurance check come in (whenever it does)..

    :D But, toyota ftmfw > ford

    It was a little muddy, which ultimately means it was one hell of a day.

    Drop bracket lift and booger welds
    So I devised a plan to be able to lock my bikes in my truck if they need to sit someplace for a bit (mostly for piece of mind) but I noticed that the tie down hooks have phillips head screws going into the bed. Are they really just screwed in? Or were they screwed in and then welded?

    Because if they were screwed in then this plan would be pretty much fail.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Yep...just screwed in.
    Chances are they are seized up pretty good if they've never been removed before.

    hey I replied to your post about my stock bumper. It's yours if you want it. However, it does not have the frame backets. From the look of your pics your frame brackets on your bumper might be toast. I'm happy to check it out with you if you want. If my stock bumper will work for you and you want it, let me know.

    Also happy to help fab a new one if you can give me a little time.
