this is my first real fab project, so it may not be as detailed and intricate as some of yours but im satisfied. its out of 1/8" but i am using alot of gussets. the pics are kinda crappy because they were taking with a camera phone, but let me know what you think.

Looks good from what I can see. Any plans for recovery points or a winch? How do you intend to attach to the frame?

yeah, there will be welded on tabs for d rings on each frame horn, and you cant see in the pix but it has two plates sticking out the back that will bolt to the outside of the framerails, wich are also made out of 1/8" that go back to the front cab mounts but are substantially gusseted..i believe it should hold in a collision....as for a winch...it will be coming in the future and will sit mostly inside the bumper, i will post pics with from an actual camera early next week after i get more done i should be finished next weekend except i cant decide on painted, roll on bedliner, or powdercoat(only if reasonably priced) josh
