Damn you Kert with your crossmojination!

You had better NOT build any wheel disc brake kits for Rockwells.(I am hoping reverse psychology works!)

Find me a reasonably priced, bolt on ~14" rotor and your reverse psychology might have a shot. ;)
 
Here are a couple of pics of the center from DIY4X with the 52 hangers integrated. Ill post more when everything is done. Thanks Kert for the awesome built bumper! The body is hitting in the last pic cause I havent put the body mounts on yet. Everything fit perfect.

Dang. The next one I see and you're only 60 miles from me! O well. Post up when you get the winch out there so I can take a look. I need to lower my winch mounts to clear the grill a bit.

Here are the pics with the winch installed. Enjoy.


Now that is approach angle!!! That's what these bumper centers are all about!

Wait till ya see what is going on the crew cab project.
 
has anyone built onto them, ie. stinger and more tubing? curious how it looks

ive got the b52's on my truck now, but im definitely thinking bout selling them and getting the bumper center with the b52's built in for extra frame strength. badass product kert! definitely make a bumper center for the rear and ill add it to my wish list :) haha
 
I have a stinger on mine, no pictures of it right now though I will get some tomorrow when I get home
 
lol. Tell Kurt you want the ABomb that mrdrinksalils got. It is cool to have something uniqe but I have to say I do get excited when someone gets interested in one of those centers.
 
Mr.Drinksalil,

You should see the one I screwed up!!! I'll post pics in a week or so. I managed to save it.

I found a home for it on my crewcab build.
 
So its not in the showroom? all that work I woulda cut it up and fixed it too. I want to make a full bumper out of mine asap but ive run into some financial issues paying all the bills recently so its gonna be a while. GF moved out.

I'm gona finish this one off into a full bumper. First step will be to mount the tranny coolers into it. Once that's done I can move into the wings and side braces.

Truck is so close to drivable its making me crazy!!!

Sorry to hear about the GF. Cut back but keep the priorities.

Trucks
Guns
Food
Home
Cable TV
Telephone
Insurance

That was my priorities in order when I was single.:haha:
 
Lets see the pics Kurt! I want to see one made into a full bumper. Mine turned out great. Thanks again on the great work!

Thanks for the advice kurt. Tonight is my first night alone in the house. I ordered pizza. haha. Things are tight, i might even cut out the cable tv. I'm spendin money like a mad man to finish the truck for its first ride sept 5,6,7. Driveshaft came for the front today and should have phase 1 of the interior cage done tomorrow night.

The A-Bomb is a lot of cool things, but a comfortable mattress is probably not one of them. :doah:

The first night is the toughest, but there will prolly be a few other though ones over the next few weeks. Hang in there. It can only get better from here right?
