I decided I missed my fogs and wanted to mount my 20" Rigid on the JK and the Procomp will be moved to the TJ. And my welding truck? Its got good head light.

I started with this

Next thing is to finish off the light mount, then mount the bumper and figure out how I want to profile and cap the ends. I think the ends are going to be similar to my first bumper but to allow for a skid plate. I had a long night with search and rescue training so no work on the bumper today. Im catching up on some sleep!

Painted and Mounted. Bolts aren't tight thats why the d ring mounts look crooked.
