Yes, Al sprockets and #35 chain. What is missing is the stand-offs for mounting the bumpers.

It is 1530 light so it is 1.5 x 3. I found a CAD file of the extrusion on their website and extruded it to my design lenght.

Nice job all around!
thanks for the kudos, I am a bit worried as weight estimates come in at 45 pounds once chain & sprockets, Dual Cims, front and rear bumpers are added to this design. I like the adjustability of the 8020 but is sure adds on the pounds.
