New to the site, love it...

Put a new bumper and winch on the bronco this weekend. Turned out pretty good.

New beadlocks came in Fri and hopefully tires will arrive this week so I can go break everything Memorial Day Weekend...

Later,
Chaser

Welcome.

Bumper and winch look great.

I can't wait for your tires to come in either.....................the ones on there now look totally out of place.

Any chance your joining our Memorial Day event on Saturday the 28th ?

Nice...congrats! What type of bumper is that? It's interesting how it's not as wide as others but follows the grill lines.

We made the bumper. A friend of mines owns R&M Welding and Fab in Wellington. HeΓÇÖs a genius with metal. Few hours of telling me then showing me what to do and his finishing touches on the welding and it was done. We made it short so when I stretch the wheelbase and go to 44'sish and 1 tons or RockwellΓÇÖs the bumper is not in the way (at least that was the thought after the first few beer

Looks great! I like the new Smitty Winch with the Synthetic Rope - excited to hear what ya think. Bumper looks tuff.
