Do you have any pictures or diagrams/plans? Curious what you did.

I can take some pics tomorrow but I'm still working on it so it won't be the finished product.
its only tacked together, still need to add two plates, redesign the ends under the turn
signal, and cut holes for my IPF lights.

If you pick up an issue of Peterson's 4WOR, you will find a Dodge with some ideas in there for ya.

get some 1/2 plate steel and make a cutting edge on the front side.. bolt this to the frame.. and BAM you got a tree killing trail making machine (mius the stumps that will take off your axles)

Ok here are a couple of pictures I took. Please take into consideration that its just tacked
together and not finished. It still needs the top front plate, holes cut for the IPF lights,
tubular brush guard, full welding, final grind, and hurculiner. I am redoing the very ends of
it where the turn signals are.

Nice. That looks really good!

It better be able to withstand a Furd Wranger!

I know it looks like it sticks out really far but its actually only 5 inches from the front grill.

94beater: Can't seem to get your link to work.
