Looks beefy, make sure to get it painted/powdercoated that thing would rust like a mother!

It's cool looking but I would get one with a drain plug. Especially if you go mudding.

Looks nice! I agree with the other guys about the plug. I'll be getting one made by Solid when I get my locker installed.
