Looks nice. The front looks a little too beefy, did you feel you needed the box section for strength or was it simply to bring the hook down to extend through the grill?

Thanks for posting!

Both, that setup was the simplest to fabicate and weld together without having to modify and cut things to make them fit. Plus I didn't have to re-enforce it to make it strong. JD
