I also stopped by and picked up the materials for the bumper. 1-10 ft section of 6"X1/4" flat bar for the "frame" brackets and winch mounting. 1-10 ft section of 6"X3/16" flat bar for the front section and gussets. And a 4'X8'X1/8" flat plate for the top and other misc stuff. All these materials only set me back $160...not bad!!

I hope it has mounts that run down the side of the frame and not just bolt to the front of the rails where the factory did.

I made my own plates with 7 bolts per plate and the bumper bolts to that and when I can do away with the sway bar I'm gonna add in those 2 bolts as well
