Fabtech is a company that makes off road goodies. This is Fabtech's Prerunner Front Bumper. Got it from Quadratec.com

Looks good, been looking for a light bumper. Do you have plans for a winch?

There is a thread on how I mounted the hi lift on my spare tire in the fabrication section.

http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/vie ... hp?t=33985

The shovel and axe on my roof are mounted using u-bolts and quick fist grips.

No prob. I love the quick fists. I used to use 2 of them on my roof rack to hold my hi lift, but it was too easily stolen, so I switched it to my rear tire carrier. People hardly notice the axe and shovel up there so I don't worry about them being stolen.

Do not get the 3" it is HUGE, WAY to BIG.

Use 2" for everything. I recommend using three 2" grips for a hi lift and two for the other stuff.
