I bought it from Top Gum Customz. I put the link up a few posts above. They are on sale. I couldn't resist...lol

The headlights are Ebay POS. Alot of cutting of the header panel to make them fit and they still are not perfect.

That does look tough! One question, does it block airflow to the trans cooler?

Like when I change my tires, I lift one wheel up, put a block under it, use a screw driver with 14mm socket on it, loosen the 8 lugs, take off the tire, poke a hole in it with my finger to release the air, rip the tire off, put the new one on, put the valve stem in my mouth, blow to 70lbs (had to make a special adapter to be able to do this), put the tire back on, finger tighten the lugs, cause i don't want to go past 100ft/lb, pick the corner up, take out the block, and let it down. Don't even get me started on engine swaps...
Rep sent, that's the funniest post I've read in awhile.

OP, thats one bad bumper. How do those compare to the ranch hand and other brands - they appear to be pretty top notch. I was looking at the plain front bumper without the guard.

He hasn't posted in over two months and this thread is almost two years old. Maybe these comments will notify him and he will be back?
