I believe it's 27.5x 19x 3. The factory front bar blocks so much. You don't realize till its cut off. I was really hesitant about removing it but now I'm really glad.

What issues did you have relocating the ABS pump? Hardlines, wire harness, bleeding etc.?

Debating still if Im going to relocate it(I will need new lines, extend at least 10 wires, etc). Bleeding would work the same as it does stock if I keep the module/abs. I might just delete it go manual brakes though. Still up in the air.

Damn that's a lot of welding!
Good looking welds though.
Now, wouldn't it have been easier if you just used some of that 4"" stainless steel flex pipe that they use on dump trucks and ****??
