Thanks. Thickness, the majority is 3/16. 1/4 used on the main section "middle". The main bracket between the trucks frame is half inch.
Keep it bare...I hear ya but no its getting powder coated black this week.
It's a local fabricator who is making it for me. Great guy and reasonable rates. If you live in or around Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and you want some custom work done check out Flatbroke Offroad. Its been grwat working with him.
I'm pretty stoked to mount it next weekend. We decided not to mount the winch control box under the hood, instead its being reloacted to a different location in the front bumper. The plug will be accessible from the top of the bumper, in front of the front grill (if that makes sense). The photos above are also missing the cut outs and mounts for the Rigid duallies. Going to use the stock wiring from the fog lights. This will keep the dash cleaner as it will use the stock fog light switch.
I keep eye balling those spod switches...slick...I just don't have enough switches to warrant the expense yet. Maybe once the compressor get wired and a roof rack gets installed...
