Started my front bumper build will be slower but I should have it done before April.
Build plan:


Got the top and bottom partly mocked up with the 2 hours of free time I had today, I wish I had the whole day. It would probably have gotten pretty close to being done.
Nothing is welded in but the one bar on the top piece closet to me. (us - if you were the one taking the picture.)

Bottom --- Top


-that piece is just for visual, the real piece on the end will be much longer.

- My winch is going to go on the bottom, so that 'whole' in the top one is there by deign to get the winch in/out.

I got the bottom half mocked up. Just gotta burn it together, this thing is going to be huge. hahahahaha The plan right now, is that the winch is going on the bottom, I ditched the smaller bottom for one of the same size just not as long.

The stinger is quite large I might cut it down and make it smaller.

So I didnt really like how long the stinger was, so I cut it down almost foot and a half.




I also got some H4s..90/100w from autopal with the autopal housing and wiring harness off amazon.

I ran the harness through that little hole to get to the battery.


Then down into the first socket and then across the front.



Then in to the other one.
