Busted this out in about 5 hours. Still needs mounted and painted. I haven't decided what I want to do for tow hooks. Im going to box in the unibody while I have it apart, eventually Im going to do a leaf sprung SAS, I'd like to use Toyota axles.

Painted and mounted. I used u-bolts from a friends log truck. They go through the bumper, into a spacer and through the unibody. They have back plates that the nuts and washers press against. I made brackets that attach the corners too.
You could cut out part of the grill, but you will have overheating problems most likely due to lack of air flow through the radiator.
Would it be possible to cut out the bottom part of the grill so you could have a flat across bumper rather than what you have fabbed? I like the idea but not sure how it would work out, or if possible at all.
