Since winter is knocking on the door, I figured I'd better get some protection on the front. So, I finally got around to building my front bumper. A huge thanks to Jim (SROR) for helping me bend the tube. Much appreciated!
I opted not to permanently mount a winch, instead I'll build a winch cradle so I can use it in the front or rear when needed.

Very nice Brad, you do nice work! That combined with one of the cleanest 60 series around makes me quite envious!

Thanks - My goal was to camouflage the receiver hitch, have quick access to the reciever, and find a place to mount the license plate. So that's what I came up with. It actually works quite well.

Looks good. I'm with SC on the plate holder, good idea.

Yeah Jim - I didn't have any issues filling in the gap on the underside, it worked like a charm!
