For cutting this thing is awesome...If you can hold it steady it will make some nice cuts.....

The XJ was totaled by a woman texting and not paying attention...I have owned 3 tacomas so this time I decided on the 4runner..Love it

Got started on the bumper Wed. for a couple of hours, then had honey-do's. Went hunting Thursday and most of today..When I got home I started on the bumper some more...My daughter graduates college tomorrow so I won't be able to get anything done until tomorrow afternoon..I'll post more pic's of the progress tomorrow...

The first picture is of the first welds from the new welder.
2nd pic is the winch mount plate..Got to drill more holes for 2 more bolts and drill out the holes for the winch mounting bolts.

I welded in a 2"x2" thick wall square tube between the frame rails to mount the winch.I still have to come up with a way to mount the bumper now..
