Hello
How much you pay for your new bumper and where did you buy? Can you send me the email address and company phone number?
Thanks

Be careful with the factory tow hook, as I've seen them fail. I would inspect it very closely, especially if you ever whack it on something.
Nice rig!
You may want to re-think the Marlin T/C gears, I had a set & went back to the stock ones.
To install the Marlin gears you need to remove the OEM shields that are inside the the case.
This allows the gears to sling oil out of the vent hole, which subsequently created a siphon effect (me thinks) & pushed a bunch of gear oil out of the breather tube (about a quart).
You can extend the breather tube up the firewall & install a reservoir to catch the gear oil but it seems like a band-aid.
Too bad as I was really stoked about having a lower low.

I see a few other members are interested in your bumpers, I may be interested also if they back out. I pm'd you.
