Does this VX FS belong to anyone here?

Saw your post on the other truck you purchased, and how pleased you are with it.

Sooooooooooooooooooooo....about the mount....do you have any pics of your VX w/the front bumper cover off?

Unfortunately I don't. I remember the bracket was permanently welded to the frame ends and tucked in fairly tight. This had the added benefit of replacing the rust magnet front metal hoop bumper assembly underneath the cladding as well. Who knows though, I may be able to take some pictures of it for you soon!

Cool. The only bracket I've seen has been a monstrosity in size. I'm thinking a sturdy one can be made that doesn't weigh like 150lbs, b/c the last thing I'm trying to do is decrease gas mileage *lol*.

Jay & I were able to hang out at O'hare today! We had a couple of hours until his flight to Wisconsin. I really love being a part of this VXer family! Dinner, drinks, great conversation... reminiscing about past fun, planning future fun, and thinking about our VXer brothers & sisters... I think having a VehiCROSS has made my life so much more interesting and exciting.

Though you never left the family Jay, congrats & welcome BACK to the addiction!

Made it home around 2:30 am after a 16 hour drive. Man, forgot how loud the exhaust is on it, my ears are still ringing. Truck is amazingly preserved, almost as good as when I sold it 8 years ago. a little time underneath with a wire brush and POR to get rid of some Wisconsin winter surface rust is going to be the biggest project and that's not too bad either considering the time up there.

Peace
