| Awesome looking bumper. Wonder how it will do on the trails, looks very heavy. I wouldn't be able to use the top rack, I'm not tall enough to put anything on it!  |

F'n heavy... don't know for sure the box with the bumper and tire carrier weighed 198# in the box.... add in the rest and no telling.... heavy... but I am diggin the setup... love getting stuff out of the back, off the gate etc... I am going to figure out a way to mount the lil' honda generator back there, might have to get Geo to figure it out - should be pretty easy. |

So Ron... Are you driving up hill now?
I had to add 3/4" spacer to the rear to get rid of that up hill rake._________________ http://www.n2rock.com http://www.youtube.com/N2rock  |

If it is I don't notice it, I will take a tape measure to it and see if there is a slant. The front setup is heavy with a full width, bull bar and winch... the back wins by a "rack" though . I need to look at gaining lift all the way around if I want to stuff the 37 under there. |
You better think about beefing up that D30 if you want to put 37's under there._________________ http://www.n2rock.com http://www.youtube.com/N2rock  |

| Got bored to today and needed to make a few small adjustments so I thought I would post up some photos of the new bumper and attachments in the different configurations, you have already seen the complete setup. Here is just the Bumper/carrier:   Just can mounts - you can move them closer to the tire when just using the can mounts.   Just the rubi rack.. It is big enough for a small ice chest, two of the small action packer boxes or something similar...   |

NO.... just the wrenching. My neighbor came over and helped with the lifting and a buddy came over to help with the install.
Don't want to do anything that might compromise loosing any more feeling in my legs.. it already sucks and I know better than to push it.
And don't worry.... the MrsRG and all the neighbors makes sure that I don't do anything stupid.
Thanks for the concern though... |
