Thanks! I liked your lower link location so I'm working on doing the same to my TXT. The front bumper is solid 1/4" aluminum rod. I started by bending it around a rear axle shaft out of my 1:1 Toyota, then clamped it in a vice and bent the ends up. The bumper mounts to the top holes at the front of the frame (I removed the aluminum 'spreader' when I lowered the battery tray) and to the front screw of the body mount. Be careful there as the cantilever comes real close as it swings up.

The body is made by Proline. Great for crawling and bashing 'cause it's Thick!

Hey now, you don't just cut tires, oh no. You look around the house, see that there isn't anything to do, then you reach in the fridge and pull out a brew then go to our work shop and cut the tread, by the time you are done with tire one you should be on beer 2, and when you are done with tire 2 you should be on beer 4, when you are done with tire 3 you should be on beer 8 and you shouldn't finish tire 4 because you may harm yourself.

Thanks for learning how to cut tires, the hill billy way. tune in next week when we try to weld a tuber together, with a 36 pack at our side...
