4 years of hard wheeling is pretty good Rod at least it didnt take out the locker. I know where you can get F150 and F350 axles it you are thinking about upgrading.

The brakes alone are worth putting a front 44 in.

So is the lower bumper going away and you are using the top bumper with the stinger? Or are the 2 being tied together?
Got some more work done to the bumper today, also will be putting on some support bars on the outsides of the stinger.

its definitely unique! my only worry would be the approach angle being severely compromised.
Bought and installed a new CB.
Cobra 75 WXST, with weather radio, dual watch, 4 channel presets and instant ch 9/19. All the controls are in the handset so only a small junction box needs to be mounted, which I put under the dash so it isn't in the way.
The speaker in the handset is pretty weak so I also picked up a Valco Big Mouth extension speaker that plugs into the junction box but is volume controlled by the handset. Big improvement on sound and the signal is very strong considering the antenna has never been tuned.

Picked up a 12 ton press yesterday for $50
Unique is what I like, don't want to have a stamp out bumper lol. The bottom half of it is what I got from Arron and that is the way it came to me, I added the square tubing and the stinger on it. I have been looking at the bottom part thinking about trimming it and changing it up to help the approach angle, it's all going to come down to how it looks when I mount it up though.

If I give you the manafold back can I have the bumper?
Ok so got it almost done today. Still thinking about putting some angle on the bottom corners of the bumper.
Here is what the bumper looked like the day I got it.
And now here is where it is at now, everything is tacked on and going to start welding it up. Like I said might be cutting and putting a angle on the bottom corners of the bumper.

looks good. but i do agree with angling the corners
Yeah I have them marked up to change that part. After putting it up on the jeep decided some of it needed to come off. After I get what I have marked out cut off I will post some pics.
As you can see in the first pic that is how that part of the bumper came to me and I have been adding and cutting at it sense I got it lol
