Nice! I'm going to make a bumper very similar to that.

Looks good, did you raise it higher and get it closer to the tailgate?Installed a Barnes flush rear bumper and cut 6" off my tire carrier.

Did you switch to synthetic oil?ordered a new soft top since the zippers on the used one I got from a friend basically fell apart. I'm only planning on using it to cover up if it rains as I have no garage, so got a cheap one. in the meantime it's covered in a tarp in case it does actually do more than mist out today...
In worse news, sprung a pretty significant oil leak that i'm pretty sure is due to the valve cover gasket, potentially oil pan gasket (and honestly probably both). The oil pan itself had some rough rust starting on one side so buying new gaskets and waiting for a new pan to get here. But in the meantime, stuck some foil pans under it and watching it drip. Somewhat depressing as it had no oil issues before and it was a sudden bad leak a week after changing the oil.
I have this too and love it. I've had mine about ten years as well and no issues....other then I worry about people stealing junkGetting ready to take the dogs with us for a ride to McKinstry Peak today, put the Smittybilt C.RES cargo net on for safety. I’ve had this thing for well over 10 years and it’s held up well, takes about 15 minutes to install with the safari top back over it. If you have dogs and want to go topless this will give you peace of mind and for 70 bucks it’s worth every penny.

Now my gas can rack is too small by an inch!
It's always something)
It just looked like it would be fine. Oh well.....more modification tomorrow.Measure once, cut three times!
Then I took a wire wheel to these to get them a step closer to painting. They covered rust spots with beadliner and it was bubbling. One set of feet are slightly bent and the tube, so it took a decent hit, but I'm sure the BFH will fix that problem.
