    Way to go man!:waytogo:

    One question. Is the upside down V notch (yours), any better/more practical than say a U shaped one that yours came with?

    Just wondering.

    Thanks man. The front bag brackets look real good. And the uppers appear to be bolted on...Im asuming that when I put the 18's on the fron after I make the new rear lower bars that I am going to have to raise the upper mounts to lay out. Well see I guess.

    Eh yeah i didnt care really...I wanted to get the truck because It was already bagged so that I wouldnt have to buy all of air management stuff lol and didnt really want to spend allot of money on this truck cause its just to cruize around and go to shows with this year while im still building my ranger...(backhalfed 98 body droped 5 inches on 19''niche f16 wheels)I also didnt buy the truck or new rims lol...Traded my built 89 s10 for this truck. I was just tired of it, It was the first truck I built and have had it for the last 7 years, so it was just time to get rid of it lol. Oh and the rims I traded my non running blazer for lol

    Yeah bro Its mine lol...I built them out of 2x3 frame material. idk if its more better or practical, its just what I wanted lol...everyone sells the triangle notches but the have a flat on the top. So I just decided I wanted to build something that would just look crazy lol
