I got my Buckstop front bumper mounted. This is one heavy duty bumper. The design and build quality are very good. Buckstop even put three holes in the top for my off-road lights at no additional charge. The only gripe I have is that the sharp edges were not smoothed. Mine was ordered non coated. I took a sander and file to mine to make it more knuckle friendly. A local powder coater finished the bumper in a high gloss high durability black.
I also built my own custom rear bumper from 3. 5 x 3. 5 x 3/16 square tubing. It is a double stack design with 1 x 1. 25 spacer blocks. I built the mounting plates from 8" channel iron. I had it finished in the same black powder coat as the front. If someone hits this thing hard enough to bend it, I would hate to see their vehicle.
I will try to get some pics posted after I get all of the lights mounted.
By the way, the take off bumpers from the truck are for sale. I put an add in the classified section. It should be out there on Monday.
