It's back! The classic rear bumper for the Iron Pig, with a few updates. The new version complements the body lines a little more fully.

I’ve been contemplating selling off my wood shop tools for a laser/plasma table but that would really up my excuses for not getting things done. Haha

I like that a lot. Simple like the OE but with useful adds like recovery points and trailer hitch. Good design!
