Thanks.

1/4" brackets welded on. Just need to bolt-on and add the D-ring tabs but no hurry.

I haven't updated this thread in a while but still building.

Winch. Yes it's all 1/4" and gusseted in several different ways underneath. In addition to welded the plate is also bolted to the bumper. As you can guess somebody has already said it looks flimsy but it's quite the opposite and over-built. You'll have to trust me on this.



Tire carrier still in progress.

hahaha. I suppose I could take a picture of the bottom at some point.

Just wait until I put that 1" bolt in upside-down on purpose. I'll never hear the end of that.

Tire carrier is so close to being finished. Axle isn't welded yet so I can put the spare up there and adjust the length.

Did you cut and fold the front fenders or just cut them off???
