Default Bored....

Hey guys I got a little bored and a wild hair... I decided to take the rear bumper off my truck and take it down to the metal put some rust prevent on it and paint it with rubberized undercoating. I just got the bumper off today (suprised it came off easy just a little wd40 and a breaker bar lol)
I noticed it was starting to rust up pretty badly so I figure well ill save a little money and clean it up and make it nice again. Heres a few pics of it now plan on working on it more when the kids go to bed lol. maybe have it ready for rust prevent tonight! I plan on doing the same to the front bumper. I will have more pics on my progress


The last pic is the sticker I have on the back window of my truck I figured I would share it with yall

The bumper design must have changed at some point. My '94 bumper does not cover the center section for a hitch-ball, which is rated at 8000lb pull.
