in the process of the same thing. your welds are prettier than mine (especially where I needed two passes to fill the groove). My little 120V welder can't burn 0.035" wire fast enough to put that much filler in there.
I got a head of myself and started grinding before I remember to take a pic, but I'd only started one before I stopped for the photo opp.

I'm going to cut a hole in my crossmember and bury the hitch receiver all the way to the fuel tank crossmember (which I can do since I have an LJ). This will put the pin back behind (in front of?) the bumper, and the receiver should only stick out maybe an inch. I just cut the hole in the bumper today, and I'm gonna pull the factory bumper off and mount up this bumper to use as a stencil for the hole in the rear crossmember, then I'll tack it on as well as the bottom edge flange I'm adding and pull it back off to finish.
