[QUOTE="crash2, post: 1431247, member: 15940"] So sunday was spent basically doing one thing and that was fitting the new panel, bumper mounts and bumper. It was very slow work between having to pull the bumper on/off dozens of times.. [IMG]http://nw-wheelers.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10002/dad472.jpg[/IMG] The inner brackets were ok but required a little notching. But it was the mid brackets (outer bracket goes from the bumper to the fender) that required the work. I made new plates where the mid bracket sits/shares the main bracket mounting bolts. [IMG]http://nw-wheelers.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10002/dad473.jpg[/IMG] Lopped off the old plates and reworked the rest of the bracket and then welded them to the plates. I am not sure if its the new bumper or the fact the old one was bent that made the old ones not fit--but they do now. [IMG]http://nw-wheelers.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10002/dad474.jpg[/IMG] So now its ready for paint. [IMG]http://nw-wheelers.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10002/dad475.jpg[/IMG] Pulled it and Don came and grabbed it to take to CT's to get painted. I also painted the brackets and undercoated the area where the bracket sits on the framerail (had to go around it before). [/QUOTE]
