Well, I took some time this morning to repaint my front bumper. It had gotten banged to hell from ECXC, B2S run, and finally, Old Florida Trail run. I was able to bend it back from where I bent it on that first rock ledge, took me about 5 hours to sand, prep and paint, and for extra security, I added two 3/8 inch bolts on each side for extra security.

Nothing to exciting, I'm mostly posting to avoid getting back to work on the truck. I have a lot more work to do.:mad:

Ditto, and my skids! It's going to be too cold to install them by the time I get them. :o

Hey, I have a heated garage so that's not a problem. You are welcome to use my garage, although it is a little far.

Well, I was successful. Spent two hours on message boards instead of working on the truck. Productive? No. Successful? Yes!:)

For those of you interested, I added two 3/8" bolts to each side of my Shrock bumper. One is in the back, where there was already a 3/8" hole in the bumper and the other one is the unpainted one. You'll need bolts 3 1/2" long to go all the way through.:)
