Very interesting, Terrance. I'm curious to see a mock-up in person. |

Got my Hardcore bumper on today! Kinda sucked, I broke two weld nuts (up front) taking off my old Hefty skid. One of them broke immediately: [/url] I spent two hours Sawzalling through both the tow hook and the bolt to get it off. At some point I broke out the oxy-ace setup to blow some metal out so I could get the blade in better: Once that affair was done with (three hours to remove four bolts!), the rest was simple. As final insult to injury, my license plate screws were seized to the holder. I had to angle grind them off. The provided hardware was too short - gonna have to run out in the morning to get longer bolts. They threaded halfway into the provided nuts with two washers - I need bolts at least half an inch longer to thread through AND use a third (lock) washer. I'm considering trying to use both my old Hefty (for stock bumper) and Hardcore rad skids on top of each other. I'll see if I can make that happen later this week. |

Were you ever able to make the hefty skid work with the hardcore bumper? |
