I like it man, one thing that comes to mind... ever think about bobing the back a little? the help with dragging the *** end like on rock chucher, coming off things? I am sure 3-4 inches would help alot. Just rather then adding to the dove. crop it off flush? somthing ive been thinking of doing when I eventualy chop mine... But fixing the bumper mounting and tank could be a bit off work...

I thought about bobbing the back a bit. I'm gonna have to look at how I can "improve" the detours system! Lol i'll probably mess with all that when I have tube to make my rear bumper with.
