Frame length Okey Dokey, I took pictures that showed 13" of frame in front of the forward love handle, lower bolt. Great pictures that clearly showed the winch bolts, bumper bolts and the easiest spot to cut off a big bulky bumper right below the cover surrounding the area where your 'new...

Pinstripping the G749 Pin stripping on the G749. Did you see that, there's pinstripping on it. Someone took the time to put stripes on it, it has stripes. That girl was loved by someone at one time, it's beautiful. Are there more pictures? Can you drop some photo's in the "un-official G749...
