Alex, I hope this helps. If you need any other pics, just holler and I'll take some more pics. This is just some that are on the Facebook page. You guys are all welcome to like my Bro N Law's Facebook page. There are right at a thousand pics of this build on this page. His Facebook page is listed just like what is in the signature under each of my posts. Join it and check them out. He is always interested in answering questions that people may have. He's also pretty impressive with his work. We just worked a wrecked fender that was all crunched up back out a good 3 inches or better tonight. Everything he does is old school with hammers and scrap metal. It's awesome to watch and even learn from him. Maybe one of these days I'll be able to do this too. LOL! I doubt it!

Funky, but somehow it works !

The Styling is angular and rounded at the same time.
I usually like angular, but in recent times find myself gravitating to minamalistic. (More clearance)
But then it ain't my truck is it.
Cool

LOL! Yes, it was a little tricky trying to figure out a way to make a steel bumper for a WJ because they are so much more rounded. It wasn't something that we could just go with the average square box steel
