Hi Guys

Check out my home build bumper, It's not complete yet as I still need to fabricate the tire swing.

This is my first "real mod" to my Jeep.

The tow hitch is an existing one wich bolts on underneath chassis. The bolt you see going from bottom to up is one of the bolts holding the tow hitch to the body. Pardon this is the only pic i have got for it now

LOL DUBZ (S really) does not refer to shiny wheels.. it has to do with size.. i.e. 20" + rims.
