"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

I have a question to go along with this. The web site only has 1 picture of the new Marlin bumper, and it is mounted on a 2nd gen truck. I have a third gen truck and the stock front bumper mounts to the outside of the front body support brackets. Does the Marlin bumper mount in the same location? I have bent one of the brackets while pulling with the bumper i have installed now. I straightened it back out, but was wanting to know if Marlin saw this weakness and desinged any different mounting point or reinforcement for it.
It ain't worth doin' if you don't have to clean up afterwards!

Build it, break it, fix it, repeat until your wallet is empty.
