Long day, 16 hours at work and my memory is toast for today. I could not remember the question. Tail gate is fully welded in because the bed floor has been raised. It is an entire tail gate. I had one direction in mind then it went sideways. In a very good way I might add.

The bumper, it is different and retains the original idea. Clean up the lines, keep the body lines stock and make it low.

Thanks for looking!

And thank you for page eight!

Re: Torchered

I like the bumper mod, but would flatten the ends to match the smooth sheetmetal.

Re: Torchered

Sweet, what's the specs on the gas filler hinge you used on the tail light? Do you have a better pic of how you installed it?

To be honest it looks like a kitchen cabnet hinge mounted on the bed with an arm. then the arm has a hinge on it where it meets the tail light. Soome rubber stoppers will be added so it does not sit metal on a chropme bumper and some siuper dupoer magnets to hold the light in place when its closed.
