I'm not sure what it is, maybe it is a sno-cone maker, it looks like it may be a star wars x-wing fighter or something:

its ok to mee! personally i really dont like it and it dont seem to serve any purpose unless you hardcore desert race your truck........but who know you may! one thing to for sure do is to paint it another color besides the white!!!

IF YOU LIKE IT THEN THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS.....

oh snaps....

The cream color is rediculous. It looks totally different, but that's what I was looking for.

how heavy is it?

looks like awesome quality! only thing i dont realy like is how far it looks to be away from the front of the truck but the pics you gave dont really help with that.

i think it would look better if you lift it and put some 35s on it. or glass bedside and fenders with 35s.

The weight, on the phone Dixon Bros said about 100 lb, shipping weight on the box is 93 lb, so it's decent heavy!

The quality is superb! The designs and cuts and welds are perfect, definately worth the $$$! It fit DIRECTLY AND PERFECT to the truck, all the bolt holes match to the tee! The powdercoat is sweet also. I definately recommend Dixon Bros Racing!
Like I said, i'm going to take some detailed multi-angle pics tonite, it does sit far away from the truck.
And like you said, it would look alot better with glass and 35's and a LT kit. My 31's look like some lawnmower tires now. Next summer i'll have to do something with that.

I asked for the color, I didn't want black or anything plain. They normally come grey which wouldn't be bad either.

My stockers were 245's, haha, I have 31's on 15x8 american racings. They are small but bigger ones won't fit in the front fender when wheeling.

The bars are cranked the whole way! The driver's side one is but to keep it level the pass side isn't because the bolt is longer. And I already went through a whole set of ball joints because of it.
It doesn't matter how cranked the bars are, the uptravel will be the same and still hit the fender.
