I painted this part today and it will go back on for some real world testing - I'm going to pull my friends Suburban around at different angles and up some hills to see if anything comes apart. This is my first big welding project since I was trained on the job to weld about 15 years ago and shortly thereafter quit the company. The first couple welds were not too pretty (that's what grinders are for) but at least it looks like I got good penetration.

Cico- There will be end caps that will probably accomodate the stock fog lights. 110V receptacle? And as Neil mentioned, I will get a winch in a cradle and then I'm not limited to only front end winching. I could even put a receiver in my garage to dock the winch and pull disabled cars up my driveway. This I could have used this a few times now!
