Those AD bumpers are pretty fantastic.  But the bumper brackets are
incredible.  I needed to drill an extra hole in my drivers side.  Man oh man I
don't know how they make that steel, but it is one HARD peice.  Tried to
drill, no go.  Good sharp bit that would drill the truck frame with no
problem.  Triled to start wiuth small bit and go up.  No go.  Finally gave up
and burned the hole with a torch.  Hated to do it that way, but, dang, I've
never drilled steel that hard, must be some kind of spring steel.  Anyway, I
bet you could push a building down woith these trucks, if you could get the
traction.  Also about these bumpers, that the youngsters never will hear of -
BUMPER JACK.
