that's still pretty thick stuff... 1/4 would've been fine for all of it.. but keeping with the theme of the truck.. over build it. it won't break unless you're welds fail.

 

actually if you figure the weight difference, building it all out of 1/4 would be heavier then then the 1/2 inch supports and a 3/16 plate.

 

I would have done it all in 1/4" and the rest in 3/16". My bumper weighed 180#s



Now get that damn thing done already. Im sick of waiting

 

idk its done now so i really dont care. speaking of which where is your bumper?

 

sitting on the truck I put it on. LOL

It took me a lot less time to do mine and I have a wife and kids. Whats taking you so long?


Dont make me get a smilie just for you.

 

hey i want my smilie, tell ask scotty whats taking so damn long lol no dude where in the middle of moving our shop to a new location so its taking some time. i might be able to work on i this sunday.

 

You may regret asking for that smilie. LOL

can't seemuch with those pics. but looks good so far. where you located? do you have plans for different lights? does the airflow have any problems yet. is there a noticeable weight difference up front.
