yeah i know lol, i got the biggest grade 8 washer ace had, but i think im gonna get two metal fender washers, cause those are huge, but since they are thin i think doubling them up should work without folding them in half when i tighten them, the washer i got is close lol, but not right, its tight and im sure it will hold but id rather get it done right, other than that the bumper mounted super easy, its crazy you can mount a 70 pound bumper by yourself with no problem

Told you the thing was super easy. Only prob I had was that I needed to loosen up one of the brackets to fit the bumper over the bracket. Other than that I was super impressed with the install.

How does your truck do gas and speed wise with the 33's and did you re-gear? I have to get a damn headlight myself, found out drivers side high beam was shot lastnight. I didnt even get a chance to test the winch lastnight. But might hit the mudhole that as of now has a K5 Blazer stuck/froze in it.

with the 33's it still does fine, its not as bad as a lot of people say, im probably getting like 14 or 15 mpg so not super terrible lol, but you can definitely tell that there is 33's on it, mostly on the top end is when you can feel it but its still really torquey, to the point where i dont see myself regearing anytime soon, and i will probably stick with 33s
