Sounds like you guys got a lot done on a lot of different technical levels..... Carrier looks great! Wish I could have been there, and what a good time and great group of folks!

I am like everyone else it seems that I want one of the tire carrier/bumper that was built on saturday. Maybe we could do a work day when those with the equipment and welding skills could make tire carrier bumpers with everyone pitching in? Just a thought. Justin, could you post up a parts list for the bumper build with possibly some plans? Thanks Jayson

A work day at Greg's shop was how they were originally done. We didn't have enough time to do mine and have been trying to get together since to make it happen. For history and plans, here ya go...the spindle kit, mounting plate and d-ring mounts came from EMS offroad.

I am currently looking at designs for a front winch mount type bumper. I think that build will be in the fall once it cools down some. Truthfully, if we have three or four guys welding, another three or four cutting and grinding, that shop is going to be miserable hot. Besides, I need to hear from you all, who else is interested and what designs do you all prefer

I do not know if it will be any help, but I do have a winch plate I was planning on using for mine when the time comes. If you want to use it for mockup on the project, you are more than welcome to.

Cool, I am sure we will take advantage of your offer. BTW - I put your drop light in your rig. It is on the drives seat.

Thanks

Greg I have your 220 three prong plug and you should keep at your shop so the next time someone brings a welder or something you can have easy access to it. I can drop it off when Im passing through Englewood.
