Finally got a bumper!!

Well after having my accident back in late january 2006 i had orderded a Marlin Crawler tube bumper on April 8 and was told that there was a 16 week lead-time on it. I was willing to wait. The 16 weeks rolled around and then another month, then another. I think all in all i waited like 30 weeks, so i canceled the order on that one and purchased a TJM T-17 from www.4by4connection.com and after waiting just 15 days it came in today! My dad and i are gonna put it on tomorrow morning since his flight doesnt get in till tonight. I cant wait to get this thing on my truck and finally be done with the zip ties!!!


EDIT: had to throw in a pic of the zip ties incase yall didnt know wut i was talking about.
EDIT#2: Sorry bout the size of the second pic.

Is the frame or support bent at all? Looks like your tires are wearing uneven, might be me though.
