Re: It's my turn, 47 S10 build
Kinda bouncing around a little bit depending on my schedule. Took a little time this past week and got the front bumper mounted. I used 1 1/2x1/4" strap for all four. I don't have a heavy enough vice at home to bend it accurately so I cheated and cut 2/3 of the way through where I wanted the bends, shaped as needed and then added a couple heavy tack welds to hold it for now. I'll finish weld them when it's apart. Right now it's held on with 4 #12 self tapping screws. They worked well to hold it in place for mock-up and my pilot holes are already drilled this way.
I ended up with a white bumper from being cheap. Searching through Amazon and eBay they were all either chrome or black primer. The painted one from LMC was $6 cheaper so I ordered that one. Turns out the painted one from LMC is white. Thank God for spray paint.
