Bumpers mounted! The front is a TJM chopped and overhauled.




Power coating Next week, Sonoran Steel System upgrade on the way

OOOOO soooo Nice!!!!!!!!

I can't wait to see them powder coated.
Are you going black or you matching the rest of the Runner?

I have the same color Runner.

Thanks. The 5th wheel is on the shelf in the background. The color is going to be black with a satin finish. This setup is very heavy!

We started with a T-17. The corners were cut and reworked, a winch plate was installed and a bull-bar/stinger was added. The few complaints I had for the stock TJM was the bolt-on wings and winch location. I was lucky to have a subcontractor "SMP" that worked with me on this one.
