Just found them at the bottom of the order area. I completely missed that. I just assumed they were part of the deal, not another $125.. Makes sense to make them an add on in case someone wants to build a bumper from scratch. Building a bumper was a consideration and now I may lean more in that direction before springing the extra cash for the brackets. Or might try to fab my own brackets with built on tow hooks..

Fab or modify your own! They are not worth the $125 if you have the skills.
Current rides:
2013 Toyota Tundra DC 4x4
2008 Dodge Nitro 4x4
2005 Nissan Sentra 1.8S Special Edition
