I really commend the work but I don't know if I could be without one of my pinzies for the length of time it would take. I think I would do a marathon and really pi$$ off the wife with all the garage time it would take. I guess patience is not one of my virtues.

Good luck and keep us posted.

there used to be a company called socal pinzgauers and they sold these bumpers back in the day . they never sent me the right bolts and then shortly after they went out of business i like the bumper the winch is set high to allow for maximum airflow to the motor. hopefully this summer i will get to use it more. Its basically in newish condition still because this truck has been in the garage forever.

Hey NorCal, there will be a Mogfest down here in Oct 21 to 22, somewhere in So Cal, either Johnson valley or Calico area, or Salton Sea area.

I watched your Youtube video, congratulations on a great rebuild.
Can't quite tell what color you painted the body on the exterior, looks black or dark green? Is that textured paint?
Also, really bright flashers, what bulbs do you use?
Thanks!
