im not sure the weight, but it's 3/16 plate all around with support gussets. it's tough, extremly tough, I took some Structual steel bolts home from work and used them, 5 for each bracket, and 2 for the bracket to bumper mount.

Thanks pal, I'm actually going to go 40's next summer and use it for a summer rig. insure it for 3-4 months of the summer, then drive my other rig in the winter.

i got a couple more mods for it coming up soon.. new warn winch on the way, rear cromoly shafts, bigger springs, Maybe even new leaf packs or blocks and 40's or42's.... I'm a little worried on that motor spinning 40's+, But so far, this little 4.7 is tough as nails.. no problems wit the motor and she can squeel the 37's with ease, just something i dont do very often because i'll probably loose the trans on the highway LOL.

Are 40s illegal in Canada? I know here 40s are illegal so people are running 39.5s.

Now I know why you were able to fabricate all your own stuff, you weld for a living lol.
