It looks a little better

I finally got that roll pan mounted. The left box side is still jammed up and inward on the lower corner, so I didn't weld it on yet. I have to get that lined up again first. But I just had to get that crooked old step off the rig.





You can see in this pic why I need to line that lower corner up with the stock location.

That cleaned it up a bunch. Looks so much better than the bumper...

Re: It looks a little better

Thanks guys. I can't wait to weld it up and smooth it out.

The cool thing is, with the money I got from the insurance to replace the step bumper, I got this pan and still have enough left over to rebuild the Garrett T3 .60/.63 Turbo I got for my T-bird. And maybe enough to replace the rear-end on the truck.
