    CJ7/yj bumper designs for outboarded shackles and tire carrier

    Minus the extensions for the shackles that like perfect and what I was trying to think of. Were you able to add shackle points later to it? I notice your fenders are taped with paper. Is the area covered in paper what you were able to keep and the metal closer to the tires you trimmed?
