You must have only clicked the first one



That is shit, how does something like that break?

Probably by bumper not having its locator pin in and pushed up the fenders and breakinhg the foil thick hood metal breaking the bond with the KB weld... that's how.

It was like that on my truck because my frame was bent. After hitting so many things with your hitch, I'll bet yours is too. You'll have to figure out a way to bend the frame back if you want it to be straight. I just never got around to it. Mine was only bent on the bottom frame rails.

Alternative would be to cut the bottom mounts off the bumper, line up the bumper so it's straight, then just weld it on. I don't really suggest going that route though.

doesnt bother me that much. if anything i will trim the bumper to make those lines match up

Frack me..
He's alive!

hey I finally saw that movie you were in... Rocky Horror Picture Show. You did a great job playing that transvestite from Transylvania.

Yeah, I love the timewarp number.. anyways. Been working way too much lately. Oct/Nov are the busiest months for me plus.. they just let a fair amount of people go, so... been working even harder. Driving to San Antonio tomorrow morning to meet with Bexar County Constables and then to Brownsville PD (augh!).. Scout meeting Thursday night, drive to Dallas Friday night, camp out - Baby Shower Saturday morning in Dallas then drive home, fly to Orlando Sunday morning for tradeshow for 3 days..

Burning the candle at both ends lately. Drove through Bryan last week and didn't have time to stop and say hi... grr..

Let me know if you wanna hit lunch or drinks or something while you're in town. I work downtown and know a couple good places. If you have to book it to Brownsville, that's cool too. You doing all your traveling in the 4runner?

That sounds cool, not sure how I will do on time. No, not the 4runner.. I am driving a company car now, it's a police car. It's kind of cool.. you can haul down the freeway, and all the cars just get out of the way. Cops waive at you, and speed traps seem to just let you go by before they realize you are not a cop.
