Kidding? No I had to drill the frame and redrill the mounting holes using equipment not meant for that... Then the instructions were vague.

No regular ROTM bums me out since I was looking forward to playing again in December. I don't have any unique DIY stuff on my truck, so best of luck to everyone else!

Very cool prize too.

What that amounts to guys, in easy and simple terms is about the cost of the following: 8 Cans od AMHSC MP Heavy Duty Metal Protector, 7 quarts of ALMQT SAE 5W-20 Signature Series 100% Synthetic Motor Oil, and an EAO11 25,000-Mile Ea Oil Filter (1 Filter). A great start on the maintenance of your Raptor!

Learned to mig weld & use plasma cutter last Friday. Finished building this table (3'x3'x3') on Monday. Installed the Brannick 7400 spring compressor. Bench vise is going on the other side.

Build on my Bumper way back in the day! I've had it on for almost 2 years and the surprise/disbelief that I made it and not a shop is awesome and very humbling!

"unfair Advantage!" Did you figure out how to make the front camera work?

Hmmm... Torsen and front pumpkin retrofit into a 2010...

I designed and built/welded/bent this rear bumper set up with supervision from WSI. The Bumper, Tire mount, and side bed fillers. Paint is all me too.
