got some more pics of the rockers and front bumper...





and burned in some 1" .250 wall dom for the RK long arm brackets. opted to not use the smaller dom and spacers that came in the kit..




should be a bit more beefy for not welding on the brackets...

I'm also interested in how you have the winch mounted to the factory x-member. Picture of that would be great. Looks like the vertical plate part of the bumper butts flat up against the x-member. The factory x-member will be sandwiched between the winch and winch plate on the bumper?
Awesome build so far.
