If you look at the first page it shows how I did it,  the tube stayed and the bumper wraps arond it. My first plan was to bolt it so I could take it off but that didn't work so I welded it

I have been following your build since you started the tube work.  It has looked good all the way.  Thanks for sharing, can't wait for the paint job.

Tube front really turned out good, so did your hood.
