1/4" lazer cut and bent up! 60/62 bumpers
just an example of the new bumpers being made.
we have five of these cut, bent and ready to weld to your swing arm specs.

OOOOOOOOOOOOF!!!!!!!!! More than a sole provider for a family of 6 can afford, I'm certain. I was thinking of the 4 kids when I mentioned it, should have been thinking of my wallet. You need a go-fer???????? I'm fairly cheap.

Awesome looking bumper. How much for one like that without the swing-arms?

That's a good price. I showed the pic to my wife. She really likes the ladder and spare tire. I will start saving up....

Looks like i need to save a little too!
Can you post pics of other 60 bumpers you have made in the past so we can see some other ideas?
I saw some pics on your website, but they are small and hard to make out the detail.
Silly question, but if a bumper has no swing arm for the tire or ladder how would you access the trunk?

Uh....if there are no swing arms, then nothing is impeding normal "stock" access to the trunk...i.e. open hatch then open tailgate as directed by owners manual.
No swing arms equals no ladder, no spare carrier, no jerrycan holder.

It's a tough decision. I don't want to get rid of my 40, and the mini is almost done, so one option is to just wheel those two rigs.

Jim, I gotta hand it to you. You really do awesome work. My 80 series sliders were some of your first and they are brutally (in a good way) over built. This bumper looks great!

Very nice looking bumper! I apreciate that you took the time to follow the OEM lines on the corners. Not only does it protect but it also doesn't leave the recesses in the quarter panel exposed. I would be very interested in seeing that protection extended to the wheel well with bolt on exo tubing that matched your sliders.
Selling the basic bumper while letting customers choose what optional racks to place on the pivots is a great idea.
Regarding the Gerry can; it looks great but I think it would make it hard to use the ladder if your toes can't go through it. If you seldom go up top it wouldn't matter.
