welded some chevy tow hooks to the skid plate for some front recovery points.

xjdave95

recovery points have been tested (the LH one anyway) glad to see the welds held but the skid plat kinda bent

picked up a grille guard for cheap($10, it was bent) for a f-150 and chopped it up to make a tube bumper

xjdave95

oh ya and you can see the used 31" maxxis buckshot mudders I picked up recently
