4x4 Labs out of Grass Valley, CA just threw this together for me. He does great work and he worked around my 44 gallon auxillary tank.

What do you think?

You increased your departure angle and it looks pretty strong, price seems a bit steep... but I like it.

Great fab work doesn't come cheap. It's like buying fine art really. And speaking of fine art, that is one of the coolest looking swing-outs I have seen. I love the ladder hoop/jack mount. Nice job on the 1/4 protection too. Beautiful!
 
That looks great. 'bout what I have in mind for my gates. Any chance of a closeup of the latching mechanism? That's what's giving me the most fits in designing. Thanks!
 
Thanks for all of the compliments!

It was expensive but considering how much just a stock Toyota plastic and chrome bumper would cost, it is not too bad. Very labor intensive.

Luke deserves the praise. I just watched him install it and wrote the check.

I will get some more pics as soon as I can. The truck is at home and I have to take it to the shop tonight for some injector work.

Skillet,
Luke is sending me the steel and I am welding up the same bumper...I am wondering if you would post more pix. I have a Long Ranger tank too and would like a head start on fitting the tank with the bumper. I did the dual swing out too...
Another thing...did you powder coat your rims? Looks cool...
Thanks
