I am going to add a vice on the front bumper so I might try the factory way, But if it gives me a **** of a time, I will go to what I know from my days as an ironworker, rigger. Changing the load blocks on 200 ton cranes are alot easier with a wedge socket.

Lets catch up JT I need some more parts, Let me know when you will be at your shop
