Here's what I got so far, now I just gotta cover it in steel diamond plate or just steel plating then bend out my prerunner bar and then put a winch on her!
Looks great

There's four support beams that I had stick welded by a local exhaust shop then the rest I welded with a mig! I've loaded it down with about 600 pounds and it didn't budge!! So I know it'll handle the winch. Also I'm gonna add a pre-runner with 4 lights then put my new billet grill in after I cover it with steel and bed liner it!
