    BTW, you could just mount your license plate on your bully bar but I like it on my receiver better.

    Thanks Tom,
    I tried to find the deepest bracket I could, so if I go to a larger tire or different offset wheel, I have room to spare...get it.....spare
    Anyway, I am happy with the results and I have no indication of deformation of any kind.
    I haven't decided what to do with the palte, now that I am making skid plates, I have put it on the back burner. I am gonna try to knock out half a dozen plates this weekend if I can, and then wait until I get some feedback for finishing touches and ship those out. That money will go toward my bumper project and manual hubs. Then the next batch of money will help fund my new trail tires and wheels. I would guess once my bumper is done, that will put me into the medium modded category? I have done so much to it, it is getting hard to keep track.

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.
