Just look at it!!
I really like this thread so far. the build is coming along nicely. but I might be wrong but doesnt the shackle angle matter with the weight of the jeep on it, not just hanging there? I think once everything is on the ground it'll be a whole lot better. someone correct me if im wrong. once again everything is looking good!

[quote=dev_daddy;1121400]The bumper is my favorite. It let me hack off my useless hitch assembly and get much clearance back there. And it also adds a lot of protection! And it looks good




Once I started painting it!



And what it looks like on my Jeep. We took quite a few pictues of our 3 jeeps, cuz it was the first time we had ever had them all together




Really like that rear bumper but can't tell who makes it, is it a custom fab or a prebuilt? great build
