Re: Rat repair.

Slapped it up on the mounts shortly before work, i somehow ended up being 1/4" low on the passenger side so i'll have to weld a 1/4" shim to that mount. I also took the time to add plates to each side of that license plate mount bracket to close it in.

I may not be Ryan when it comes to welding (don't we all wish) but i know i have good heat and penetration so it will last.

Cant wait to see this thing in paint, all the white and rust makes it look like its warped allover the place.

I have been debating on both front and back bumper should i keep the white? or just go with bumper black. Leaning towards black.

Now the big concern, can i put it back on the mounts in place and get it tagged in place before i have it fall on me ....

And can i keep the heat in control enough to keep the mounts from getting warped to where i can still unbolt and remove/replace.
