looks good man! i am not really a fan of big beefy boxed bumpers but that came out really good.

i know what you mean about the winch height, sometimes you can only make it so high without cutting everything. is that bumper bolted on?

anyway looks good and nice fab work!

How did you make the shackle receivers? did you buy them or cut thick steel stock or what?

Oh and yes the bumper is completely bolt on I wanted to have it where if I get a inspection ticket or for some unknown reason I sell it I can take it off in mins and put the stocker back on. But don't get me wrong its still bulletproof!!!

3 foot x 8 foot, or 3x4? so less or more than half?
