I think if you add a center hoop to your canvass, it would fix the issue

Got a Rc4wd 1/8 Warn Zeon 10 winch for Christmas. Finally got it mounted. Had to cut a chunk out the bumper to access the mounting screws. It's ugly but it won't be seen. Got the winch all painted and weathered. Girlfriend not very happy I made my new present look old..........She'll get over it lol. |

Decided it was time Ole Heavy has a rear bumper. Nothing special straight steel bar, tow rings, and pin hitch. Simple but effective. Still needs to be painted. Do that another time |

Pics of how Ole Heavy sits now. In the last pic I tested Ole Heavy's strength by putting 4 bricks in the bed. He broke a rear axle but he pulled them!!! |

Weathering looks great, for a minute there, I thought the high lift jack was real. She's definitely a strong puller, fantastic build Rick! |

I can't count the times I said to myself: 'oh, there's the real truck he used for inspiration' while looking through the pictures. Incredible build!!! |
