I didn't take my camera to the hobby shop when we started it but I'll get some later today when I go out to work on some of the details.

i thought you would have another picture with mr t jumping out with the rest of the A-team!!!!!!!

only concerns are approach angles and better access to recovery points.

I sacrificed a bit of aproach angle for the utility of the push bumper design, don't think I'm gonna miss it too much.  as to the tow points I plan on grabbing a good heavy tree saver size strap and keeping it in the rig for winches and chains to hook to the hooks the nice thing about the slots is they allow angled pulls on the stock tow hooks, I may decide to cut the slots wider and/or go with some shackle mounts for tow points but I do want to keep everything behind that chunk of plate steel.

brice, I think we should put some points on the front of that bumper like the ones on the rear of mine, what do you think.
Lets go see what I can break next
