No the guy ended up getting a ride home with someone else so he couldn't get it. I think I might just go to harbor freight tomorrow and get one. I'll just need to find someone to help me weld the front mounts to the bumper.

i could but its a piece of 3"x4" 1/4" tube so i'd rather just weld it because drilling would be a pain.

Can you post a link to the tow bar, or take a pic? I'm sitting here with Trow, he claims to me the master of tow-bar tech.

Here are the pics. The mounts will be right on the inside of my shackles. They are 28"s apart.
