Any reason for the bumper splices? (if that's what they are).

That is the old emblem that used to say camper special in gold and red. I just painted the back ground in black and kept the raised letters in chrome, then clear coated it.

the things under the rear bumper are for my dirt bike rack when I have the camper on it. It's still a camper special! :lol:

I know exactly what you mean lol
10,000 RPM is an understatement. I learned QUICK that two hands stay on the wheel! I swear i almost broke my arm twice when I first took the highboy wheeling with one hand on the wheel...

Thanks! Its manual steering. The tires are 285/75/16(33's) not too bad at all to steer, also just put a new steering stabilizer on. That helped alot. The truck just hopped strait up the retaining wall, kinda surprised me, wheel didnt hardly move.

Looks real good there yeah sometimes they just do fine other times as Ryan can back me up the wheel tries to rip your fingers off. I've seen it in broncos people with broke fingers, and thumbs from it. Stabilizer is always good mines trashed so it doesn't help.
