    Woodstown. I know of it. Dated a girl that lived out that way a few years ago. You ever make it out to the shore? Any specific beaches and towns?

    Almost forgot. Bury those mother mockers with the BBB. They deserve it

    My grandmother lived in Pleasantville near Atlantic city ( long before casinos) so we spent a lot of time there on the old steel pier. Ocean city some and wildwood once in a while. Good old days. Moved to South Dakota in 93 work was slow back then.

    Ahh dude. You were in my back yard. I know Pleasantville very well. AC before casinos is a little before my time. But I have spent numerous days and nights in them, and on their beaches. Ocean City and Wildwood are 2 of the nicest summer resort towns on the Jersey shore. Check out my post for Jeep Invasion Wildwood. Might bring back some memories. I love both their beaches. Even though I live 10 minutes from Seaside Heights and Park. I try to get down there when ever I have the time. AC back then was the place to be. It's fallen on some hard times. But still nice down there.
    ND. Wow. That's quite the move. You ever make back this way?

    I was working in NYC a year ago. Went to AC and man it was tore up from what I remember but the beach is still great. From every where I've worked traveling around the country Jersey has the best beaches. They can keep california.

    Yeah...theres sections of AC that are tore up. And you head 4 blocks in another direction. And nothing but money. Very strange and corrupt town. Not long ago the state was about to take it over. Has made some what of a come back. But nothing what it was at one time.
    Never been to California. But would really like to. And I have to say this. Another thread. Based on what ive seen between the 2 coasts. Jersey Girls Rock. And Jersey Jeep Girls....really :censored: rock.

    Agreed that's why I married a Jersey girl. California just has way too much traffic and stupid laws. I call it the granola state. Nuts,fruits and flakes. Worked there 4 years.

Haven't proven them selves to be either. So, I am going to rule them out. Lol.. Their Jeepaholics like you and me. Lol

    Yes chris4x4 I can get pics, I've got some work in the shop this morning then I'll pick out some good ones and post, Ralph, your reinforcement job sounds like it'll solve the problem, that mounting plate should have been thicker or braced better, I've noticed the bedliner spray touches up real nice after ya ding it up. Hey Bob, my boss is thinking of sending me to the Atlantic City Truck Meet, Ever been there?

    Hope this works, my computer skills are painfully outdated, this is the most basic one we have, the Stubby, we sell em as unfinished kits that you weld up and finish yourselves, cheaper that way. We also have one like this that accepts the factory fog lights and one we call the Blade. While I'm her I'll ask about what I originally came to your forum for (btw it's set up great!) I'm thinking of developing a u-weld-it articulation ramp kit but bossman says there's no market. Thought I'd ask the folks who may use/need one. Thanks to all.

    Thanks Ralph, we build em tuff, most of my "off roading" comes from the construction and landscaping fields, we used to beat the tar out of our equipment, thats what inspired stronger bumpers.

    Yup...I get down to AC every now and then. When ? Truck Show?

    I really like the stubby bumper with the fog lights. I'm running a stubby now. But it's the OE cut down with end caps. Stock looking with that custom look. I like yours. Nice.
