I really like that front anti-Bambi bumper. I guess that you're going to use that hitch for a removable winch?

Bambi basher Thank u sir.... I am going to do a receiver off the front for the winch. but the one you see in the picture is not the one exactly. I'm going to use that one to slide the female tube over, the same female tube that the receiver hitch or winch will pin into. The thought was if you really ever had to pull hard on something you would be pulling on the entire truck not just the bumper.

Ya buddy, sure are.... Not sure where exactly in the bumper yet, but for sure going to do them. Maybe put them on the wings of the jet, I mean bumper and use tube to make them point straight ahead. Originally I was going to do shackle mounts in the front and rear bumpers, but after some thought I dont think I'm going to. Its not going to be an off road wheeler and I think It may take away form the look or make it so I'm radar detectable lol.

I wanna see what kind of hatch will cover the hitch.
I like those lights, I was looking on amazon just this morning. I think I'm going to run some type of round led in the front and something like yours maybe in the rear. trying to match the headlights and tail lights. I was going to run the small square led's all the way around and still may, just depends on what I find online. As for the hatch for the receiver I dont know if I have enough room to keep it inside the front bumper. But if so, I will come up with something for sure. Thanks for the kudos sir....

Hey nice work! I like the 4 led square pods as well, I think they would look great and do well as backup lights

didnt do jack on the truck this weekend, Went out and bought a new sled and of course had to go test it out lol then Sunday went and chased devil birds up and down the mountain. I stopped by the shop for just a sec to see how some pieces fit on the bumper.

Its beautiful for sure. Utah has just a little bit of everything.


Thanks boys, I had that cut in the end plates because there just a tad bigger then the rear, so I did it to break it up just a bit. I think I am going to back them with another piece so there not see threw.

I really like driving the Moki Dugway.



It's one of the coolest stretches of road on the planet.

Very cool on the bumper builds. I might have missed it but what are those puppies going to weigh? What do you think the truck will weigh? I'm guessing 8000lbs? Big bad mofugger!
