Bumper is Complete! (well, almost)

There has been a lot of work done in the two weeks since the last update. The bumper is finished... except for wiring.

Side view.
This one shows the front access panel with the lights folded up.

This is a picture from the top, showing how the lights fold up and the back access panel can come off to get to the winch.

An electrical connection goes here.

Something for the winch... don't ask me!
Flood lights are in the bumper on the front and the one on the side has been sandblasted.

The winch... Do I hear grunting?

Front view with front access panel open. Travis made a custom air dam and license plate holder too.

He got a new truck toolbox in January. He made a structural cage for it because his last toolbox bowed a the bottom with a load. You can see part of the cage in the next picture. The bottom wasn't flat, so Travis made it flat.
You can see the cage he built under the toolbox in this picture. He also made a bike rack that is attached to the cage, but runs along the back of the toolbox.
This has been a LONG project. I'll be glad when the wiring is done. That will be done at a slower pace. Now it is time to get back to the yard, just in time for summer heat.
