Saw that APHA sticker....

You know why God invented horses, right KAR? To make boats look like a good invention. My happiest day of horse ownership was a tie between selling the actual horse, and tearing down the fence for him!!

Nice work on the 80. What brand bumper, or did I miss that?

 

[KKAAAR]

Sean made this bumper.. There is a thread on the forsale section

Your build is awesome! You are going to love that new bumper. Installing it is another story.... lots of cursing and bloody knuckles, but it's worth it!

Got a thousand and change horses but unfortunately they are not real horses.. The PO had that sticker on there

Bumper looks straight forward.. I don't think I'll have a hard time..

That's a no-weld bumper, right? Meaning you don't have to "bob" the frame to get it on?

Yup. It slides over the frame rails and bolts up. Working inside the frame rail is fun....

Just noticed your plate im in DE , how much you paid for shipping. One of the rear bumpers i like but worried on too much shipping, thanks.

 

[Slabsides45]

Sorry for not being in the loop, but I dunno who Sean is. I do like the looks of the shrink wrapped rear bumper, though, and that's next on my list-o-stuff. Well, okay-after I submit to the birf rebuild I've put off for a year.

Can you throw me a little more info?

Nice truck

 

[Slabsides45]

Thanks, once I looked at it I remembered the thread. Sean does great work. Looks like in the original thread he states that the rear cross member has to be removed. Is that still the case?

 

[KKAAAR]

Yup I'm in the process of grinding the welds off now
