Are the welded gate post sort of things on the front for herding?

That bumper is one off of last years bot, we where just trying to see where to mount the bumpers. We are currently making a 2nd tier for them.

Yes, there will be vids of Tommy when the lift is all looked up and work which should be soon I hope.
