77&79F250 outstanding photos. Amazing how you keep all this info organized enough to find it.

To the OP, what material did you use, 3/16, 1/4 ??

The prototype is going to be saved for Earthquake IV. I should have three more done today. The winch plate and mounting brackets are 1/4" plate. The front of the bumper is 11 gauge and the top tread is 14 gauge. ......it's plenty stout.

Got a couple bumpers worth of parts cut out and bent up. One more completely finished. I need to build my jig to make it faster, but the process is starting to smooth out. I need to find me a plasma cutter, too.
