as it say's
after fitting a 120 on the front had to lift the guard up
cut off the bottom of the mount holes and all then welded on a wider piece and redrilled the mounting holes







desired result and at thye end of the day you would'nt know i'd been their

Did you have any kind of a trick for locating the mounting holes? I had a bugger of a time when I extended my bracket and had to drill the holes quite large. But I'm going to a 130/17-15 tire next so I'll go back to the stock bracket I picked up recently.

Others have been running it here without apparent problems.
