Very nice looking! Homemade or off the shelf?

Remember to stop a little shorter than you are used to! That sucker sure does stick out

!

Congrats!

Off the shelf my friend, it belonged to a friend of mine. The company sadly is now closed but it was the best (IMO) company in Venezuela!

It does stick out quite a bit, doesnt it??? At leaat my ramsey will be confy in there!

Kind Regards,

Dario

That "nub" and if I understand "nub" correctly. That would be the base for the CB antena. I have to relocate it to the rear-center of the hood. I havent done it because I hace to reinstall the ceiling console where the radios are. Now its even more imperative that I do so because I have to install my HF radio and antenna. So, Ill be having a Cb, a VHF, and a HF.

Kind Regards,

Dario

Sweet bumper dude! Have not seen one like that before, but i like it heaps. The ARB style bar start to look a bit boring after you see something like that!

I feel the same way. I wanted an ARB until I got on mud and realized how many people already had one.

Nice bumper and OEM snork! ( :wink: )

My solution for the AM-FM antenna is rather simple. Im going to buy the stubby rubber antennas that you can Find online and install it either on the opposite side of where the OEM was... Or in the pice betwwen the winshield and hood right next to the snorkel.

Thing is Im goinng to have too many antennas...

CB
2 Mtr (VHF) - Good for a few hundred miles...
HF - Good for a few thousand miles for Dx`s
AM - FM: for the stereo
Wireless Winch

Im thinking of removing, but it would be like having to communications at all because most peole here use CB. Jury is still out on that one...
