    Seems like I've been working on this forever. Since I'm waiting on another rear bearing for my trans (put a hard spot on the new one driving it off to fix the low synchro), I finished welding, then painted and installed the rear bumper. Still got to make the wheel mount for the tire carrier (maybe next weekend) but I'm happy w/ the progress.:v6:

    Used existing holes for mounts (1/2" plate drilled and tapped)

    Added a 1 1/4" hitch receiver, hinge for spare holder, and antenna mount
