Well the lift is with the power/air tools, and its a lot easier to work with air tools on a rusty undercarraige while standing, but just the shear amount of rust that falls while trying to do anything on the underside, so much just falls and it forces you to stop if you are laying down on your back.

New bumper installed.

MIDWAY and FINISHED (there is a 7ft piece of Blue stone in the back, that is why the hatch is roped down.) Its actually feels a little slower cause i dont have the racing holes in the new bumper ;).

LOL, racing holes?!?!

You will have to put some fuel injected lug nuts on that thing to make up for the loss of your "racing holes"
