2in cromoly doesnt bend easy, i can jack the truck up with a hight lift jack from the corner of the bumper and its not moving. might have to play with the portapower or take it to a frame straightener

 

[MAranger]

Frame straightener should take care of it i think...awesome truck dude, I wish there was some go fast stuff around here (mass).

I'd say a highlift jack should prolly do the trick. Lookn good BTW cant wait to see it finished!

the bumper is gonna stay the way it is for the next couple weeks.. i have the baja 500 this weekend and we are racing my dads truck and i need to use mine to chase for him incase he breaks so im just finishing putting it back together for now. we had a little trip to the er cause a grinding wheel exploded and cut my arm pretty bad, 7 stitches and a partial torn tendon..

vvvvv video they took at the er for the hand surgeon

Ouch! man! were you using a little 4.5 inch grinder when that happened? did it bind up or something or did the wheel just plain out explode?

That is one nasty damn video... I'd tell the guy to get his finger the f*ck out of my arm!

Why dont you drill a hole in the end of the bumper, run a heavy duty d ring through it and route a winch line through a pulley and just lift up on the bumper, that should straighten most of it out wouldnt it? Or a hi lift underneath I guess.
