Post front bumper

for those who where wondering about the front bumper sticking out a mile from the front well I live in south dakota and we occasionally get some snow and some moron decided the he needed to put a plow on the front and in doing so he welded metal over the factory mounting holes see pic

Re: front bumper

A cut off wheel or a torch can fix that real quick. Then you can put your bumper back where it belongs.

Re: front bumper



You should be able to cut that right off. I'd be happy that they didn't do something real crazy like lopping off the front mount all together Nice find by the way....

Re: front bumper

Yeah the frame horns are still ok so chop 'em off and mount it up right!

Did you find that Blazer in Lawrence Co.? Seen the "9" on the plates. My Jimmy spent most of its driving life there also.
