    That's beautiful man. If my truck wasn't a farm tool I'd paint my front bumper, that looks tight! What wheels are those?

    thanks ironraven, this is my 14th personal build, everytime i built one for my self someone would offer me to buy it.

    I can see why! I wish there was more of a market in the USA for low offset wheels that were 13-14" it's nearly impossible to find them around here and if you do find them they're expensive as.

    suzuki original front skid plates, plug and play

    good day to everyone,

    for those someone who has this skid plates they know what im talking about,
    for anyone who do not have this option look for it its worth your time and money well spent.
    drivability wise! a day and night difference. it will minimize your body roll, a more rigid frame and cab, it will give you a lot of steering, faster going in or out of corners, handles so much better and protection under you cab radiator etc.
    not to mention you only need 4 bolts to hold it down.and looks cool too.

    just a friendly advise
    cheers!!!!!

    I had one... but removed it to put my front reciever on. I pretty much destroyed it hitting logs, rocks etc beforehand though.

    those things are so hard to come by here, if you still have it just keep it just in case. i had to remove mine and re weld just to make sure.
    thanks and have a nice one.

    NOOOOOO! Don't go Blackline. Go Eagle. These guys are the most awesome, amazing ATV/UTV plow company in the universe.

    Check my Upgrade thread for pics of their plow in action... made in the USA and dirt cheap comparatively!
