Perfect Fit? But This Bumper Wasn't Meant For the Off Road Roll Back.

[@Myhandle306]

RIP Grandpaw Sherm. It’s obvious how much he meant to his family. And the trucks were super cool, need to be on display.

[@glenwestphal7510]

Gas tanks to look like they belong there

Remember that Lego also started as a wooden toy made by a man in a shed

Grandma Lolly is my favorite. Sorry Paul. She has an awesome sense of humor that connects with me. Grandma Lolly, you rock!!

[@abewolfe7654]

That bumper looks awesome, actually cutting the ends off and having that step in it is perfect. Love your channel ❤️ Awesome family and crew.

[@MastaT_150]

The bumper looks great, I would never have thought to step the sides down but that really changed the look and it works! 👍

[@thomaslong1952]

The bumper gives so much character and strength, like a tank!

[@bobhope7784]

Why didn't you remove 10" out of the middle of the bumper ? This would of maintained the integrity of the curve and the bend lines.

[@goatlocker219]

@@bobhope7784 If he did that, the winch mount wouldn't work.

Since I stumbled onto Fab Rats, many other family oriented you tube channels have shown up on my home feed like MORR, Trail Mator, Merlin's old school, mischief maker, Chad's Fab, Diesel Creek, Scrappy Industries,,,,,.SOOOO many. I don't even watch regular TV anymore. It is so nice not to have see all the Hollywood garbage but still get to have access to great content. Thanks for all you guys do.

[@billstev100]

Super! The bumper looks awesome Paul. You’re amazing with your skills. The boys are following in your footsteps too. Sure miss Grandpa Sherm.😢 Things were different when he was still around.

[@theburtseoni]

That bumper is great! Good choice! And those huge fuel tanks should give you maximum range! Better send a picture of them to Matt over at MORR!

[@andrewcooper8980]

The banter between hunter and grandma Lolly is awesome

[@rickydonahue1586]

The way you slightly tweaked the front bumper and gave it the Paul touch really made it fit the front of the truck perfectly. It's the little things that y'all do that make your work top notch. Great job gentlemen! 👍💪

[@jeremynelson8496]

It's all in raw metal but I think the bumper looks good. It gives a beefy base for the front of the truck. The step for the sides was a great idea as well.

[@elainelarsen3798]

Please do not let Hunter ever leave. He is the person who keeps the laughter in your videos in and out of the shop. To listen to Paul and Hunter go back and forth is just fun I miss seeing Ben but the 3 of you are still doing great work. I love the bumper also. Shaun did a great job with the gas tanks as well. Keep on doing what you are doing I enjoy it very much.

[@reddog543211]

Always a great morning when Fab-Rats drop a video !!.... thanks guys !!

[@asylum4x4]

That bumper looks awesome. The fact you staggered it made it perfect. Absolutely outstanding.

[@CamObserver]

I like the Rollback bumper and for this build goes well with the old rounded body style. I think what helped was the step down on each side wing of the bumper. Once the complete truck is together, I think you will love that bumper even more. If you have to be old school you can chrome the bumper.

[@Alconium]

I think some clever sheet metal work could cover the angular nature of the super duty bumper and make it work great with the old school charm if they care to mess with it. All things considered it doesnt look bad, but it clashes with the old smooth lines above it.

[@CamObserver]

@@Alconium It's a work truck and could see some rough times. Not sure how rounded would hold up in a work environment. Looks like they still have a square boom.

[@Alconium]

@@CamObserverYeah, I'm just saying if aesthetics factor in at all they could probably skin the bumper, but if function is the priority it's probably not worth it in the long run. But they might have fun with the fabrication.

[@yannis3535]

I never comment but the front part of the truck with this bumper and look is so nice , i really love it. Hi from France ✌🏻

[@ShineRunnersGarage]

That super duty bumper looks way better than it should on there. I definitely dig it. I do have to say this is the longest 3 week build ever lol 🤣😉

[@LostandRefound]

Your crew makes us laugh every episode. Grandma Lilly Cam needs to happen more. Roll back is looking great!! Can't wait to see it in action.

[@thesalopgardener]

I think that Super Duty bumper does fit very well. I can see why there's a bit of hesitation, as it's obviously very 'modern' looking on such a classic, but I honestly think it works. Lobed the segment in Grampa Shermans workshop. When you put the scene in of you both in there, you must have kicked up a bit of saw dust or something, as I definitely got something in my eye. You're a good man, just like he was Paul, and don't let anyone tell you different.

[@b4uracing]

I think if he plated behind the bumpers cutouts it would make the bumper a little less modern. I don't like the cutouts much.

[@robbarnes3949]

Bumper looks good. Roll with it.

[@dave6501]

YES Paul. The front bumper looks Great. 👍👍👍 nice work Paul. 😎

[@benniehalwood873]

I enjoy the different variety of builds that you'll do. Sunday, Wed and Fri I look for your videos first. Your videos are not just about challenging others, breaking vehicles and fighting over the video screen. Very interesting builds, rollback starting to look good already. Great video, great family and team work.

[@builtbybo22]

Truck looks great with the bumper, and both the fuel tanks...Although I worry about keeping damage off those cool fuel tanks! LOL #BuiltByBo

[@marvincarter870]

We do miss Grandpa Sherm. Love the trucks he made! We like the new bumper on the off road tow truck rollback and the tanks are going to be really good. Love seeing Michelle and Grandma Lolly! Nice to see Jace and Lando making and appearance. Looking good!

[@SC-ti9cj]

Y’all weee greatly blessed to have known and loved such a man as Granpaw Sherm!!! He’s watching over you all and smiling at the love he still brings to your hearts! He taught you incredible and invaluable lessons along the way😊

That bumper looks great, just like it was made for it.

[@ggalland1]

Front bumper looks awesome! Those saddle tanks are cool as well. Can't wait to see the stacks mounted and then blowing black. Super cool build.

[@kurtburkhardt5862]

I like the mix of old school and modern. The way the bumper steps back by the edge of the grill and wraps around the fender blends well!

[@hank3859]

The bumper is the perfect mix of new, old time look and function. Great choice.

Bumper really adds something to that ole Chevy. I like it.

[@kendallkilgore7799]

[@MikeBaxterABC]

26:37 I think the bumper REALLY suits the trucks look!! I know it'd take me a week to make that from scratch, (by the time I figured out how it should look) :) .. It's welcome addition to the project!!

[@ronaldbarnes2897]

That’s going to be one awesome rollback, it’s gonna turn heads where ever it goes down the highway! Hey, in my opinion the front bumper looks great on there, gives it a toughness to it, nice 👍

[@hoss1003]

Hey Guys, Bumper's lookin good. But, you're mounting one of your fuel tanks with the filler spout opposite of the other tank.. I guess it still works, but usually they're on the same end, front or back.. Good luck

[@davidpurdue3992]

Bumper adds a great look to the truck! I wasn't sure how you could attach it when you trimmed it but the step down look really gave it a nice finished look. Barnes will be copying it!

[@LoganGray-k3m]

I think the bumper go's perfect with the grill. If I didn't watch the video I would of thought it was custom made. Paul, I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad when he was 52. He taught me everything I know and was my best friend. 13 years he's been gone and it doesn't get any easier, but the good memories are always there.

[@thomasbialzik3060]

I absolutely love your channel. My wife and I spend our morning coffee watching. I enjoy watching your crew solve problems and make sh@t work while giving it all style. The dynamic in the shop reminds me of times mt Dad was alive. He had a workshop out back and he and his friends would work on cars and fab strange things. It was my job to make sure everyone had a cool beverage. Thank you for the content ❤

[@paulquiroz4070]

[@PaulH_1972]

Bumper looks insane 👌🏻

[@shaunfincham9431]

I am loving the wrecker/rollback build that bumper on the front looks the part and solves the problems of winch mounting and bumper perfectly and it looks the part too. The fuel tanks and stack pipes are going to give that build exactly the look that that cab and frame are screaming out for!! I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen at the back! But I can guarantee if it’s like all the other bits and previous builds it going to be awesome. Loving the channel and always look forward to the next episode. I am glad that Hunter gets his lifting weighty items in every day ! I bet that camera weighs a ton much like that C channel that Paul and Sean carried 😂 keep up the great work all of you

[@bullittdog4352]

Bumper looks retro and works as long as it gets a patina finish on it..the tanks need that “new” knocked off them also ..too shiny. I loved the fly cutter being used as a boring head ..that’s such a garage hack that I’ve done myself ! Your dad’s wood shop is such a cool little spot ..you can just tell that a bunch of stuff got built in there.

[@JJPHAT777]

Bumper looks awesome. Makes the front end look even more aggressive.

[@aussiebloke609]

I'd think about welding in some structure to brace those fuel tank brackets. While I doubt they'd fall off, they will probably bend outwards and bring the tanks close to the ground once you've had 43 gallons/300 lbs of fuel (plus the weight of the tank and straps) bouncing and sloshing for a few miles.

[@brianbenedix4942]

Not needed ive got 150 gallon tanks and the mounts aren't much different they are engineered to hold and meet government standards

[@aussiebloke609]

@@brianbenedix4942 These mounts aren't engineered to any specific "government standards" - it's just a couple of C-channel sections welded to the top flange of the frame rail. I'm just wondering if that weld will permit the tanks to sag over time, as they aren't braced against that sort of loading.

[@tdc9136]

I imagine those tank mounts will get cross braced. They will have to have more support up front for the roll back bed.

[@brianbenedix4942]

They are engineers to standard all side mount tanks are

Bumper makes the front end, has just the right amount of beef. Everyone is gonna stare. I’m sure Grandpa Sherm is smiling big. Thanks for sharing.
