Well actually yes, we have some laser cut 1" thick clevis mounts now!
Awesome bumper! Perfect fit, tight to frame rails, bolt holes aligned perfectly. Looks great! I need my step daughter to help me get some pics loaded and on line. Just got it back from powder coating and had it mounted in an hour! Can't wait to rub it on something. Excellent service, Thanks.

That should have been the first thing you did when it came back.
Later this summer I should be ordering a bumper like the red one on Bulldogk5's truck. Do you have any pics or measurements of where it mounts to the front frame horn? I am using the Diy4x B-52 spring mounts and they only leave about 5"~6" to mount a bumper so I want to make sure I wont have any mounting issues on my non-standard set up. Also, would it be possible to mount the bumper to the inside of the frame rail instead of the outside? 
I don't know if this helps, but my bumper attached in the same frame holes as the original bumper did. Everything fit perfect. I will try to post pics when my step-daughter gets home.
Cool, thanks!
Jesse, any thoughts on mounting it on the inboard side of the frame rails?

John, I don't know if you can tell from the photo, but the sides where the skid plate attaches are the mounting surfaces to the frame. This is what gives the strength to the winch plate area I think. Doesn't mean he can't do it but i think it would be a big redesign to have the rigidity needed. That is my daughter getting ready to show me the finer points on where and how to attach a winch cable or strap.
Awesome bumper!
Hey Jesse, finally figure out how to post pics. I know the light placements are a little odd, but I needed to open up my line of sight by lowering the upper Dayliters, and I still need to do something about about the lower Hilites acting as my deer stoppers, but I love the bumper! Thanks again for the service and professionalism! Great product, can't wait to do something with a rear bumper!

Looks good. I like the lights mounted inside the upper hoop like that. Been thinking that's how I will hook up the wide beams when I get them.
Nice collection of trucks too.

THanks. The yellow one is all 1 ton. 454,465,205 60,14ff. Locked at both ends with 560+ hp. Way too much fun but drove it like an idiot on the road so It is being dismantled to increase my chances of survival. The blue and black is a DD and for mild trails. Would like to maybe go with a 14sf 6-lug for the rear. The black one is parts truck from my brother UDY. It looks to me like you have a pretty nice collection yourself
