Welcome- Good to see someone else from MT here.

Can you tell me about your lights mounted in the bumper? I have some PIAA round lights that I have thought about mounting the same way so they are protected.

I kinda rednecked em in there, I’m not a purist on this truck and plan on keeping her for a while so originality isnt something i’m striving for, I just measured where the light need to go, cut it in half so I could fold the steel back and use that for the bolts to hold the lights on, I can take some more detail photos if you’d like.

Cool idea. My bumper is already mashed up a bit from the previous owner. How did you cut the bumper? (with what?)

I used a drill for pilot hole, an angle grinder with a cut off wheel and jigsaw.

Heh- probably 10 of us from MT on here and most still live 3+ hours away from other members. There is that low population density for ya.
