There is a couple of more pics at my photopoint album(email is sbratto1@utk.edu). Sorry for putting such big pics in here but I am just really excited if you can't tell :)
The best part is all the materials for it were only $33.

Nice corner protectors. Looks sturdy enough. Is it tested yet? (Can you jack on it?)

HEH can I jack off of it, to answer your question quicky yes. This thing is stout as hell. The guy in my club(a licensed welder) and the owner of Advanced Off-road, where we did the work got into a competition and they each took a side to see who could make the best welds(they are all incredible). Plus those post are steel all the way throught(think it is called sawed) so aren't going anywhere and the bumper is 3" and 3/16" thick. When we got it on there the guys were laughing saying they will give me a lifetime gaurantee on it cause "that thing ain't goin no where". Both of the guys have the exact same design bumper and they said no need to put a shackle when strapping just through it around any part of the bumper and it will pull it. But man I can't wait to test this thing out.
