    truck went to shop yesterday. said it would be two weeks....feels like forever already. 4wheel parts was pretty quick with delivery. i picked up the bumper the day before and dropped it off with the truck. got that smittybilt m1 bumper. i know the guy thats working on my truck. he said hes going to start breaking it down today and see if there is any other damage and get supplement if needed. he said he would try to get it back to me sooner.

    Easiest way to get wife/dad to approve of aftermarket rear bumper is to hit the brakes hard and get rear ended or back up fast into big trees. (or bribe with money/gifts/both) :goingcrazy:

    I like gorrila tape, but I don't think it likes humid heat. Only one way to find out.
