Sounds good, thanks. I ordered one off eBay for 269. Should have it in about 4 -5 days.

I just found a leak in the plastic on the right side. To avoid cracked plastic again in the future im considering getting an all alluminum one. Ive done it with my other vehicles in the past with great success. Did you end up getting the koyorad or an ebay one?

Enjoying the snow before its gone. Santiam wilderness area, just off 226 Winch saved me on the way out

Its been more then a month so I figured I'd post an update, I finished some more bracing a while back, only got one picture... Did some final tacking and welding, polished some lines with the grinder, and painted it truck bed liner black, changed the roller fair lead for basic black one that...

The one pictured on their website appears to be a 2019+, but the grills look very similar to the 2021 grill, at least where the winch comes through.

Thank you, I'll look into them.

Thank you for the input. It's not done yet, but I'm sure it will serve as a much better bumper then the previous one once it's all said and done.

Thank you! I love seeing DIY projects as well, they've been a big inspriration to attempt to do something myself. I wish you much luck on your bumper. Share the process with us if you can!

Ya I'll be building sliders and rear next, mainly so I can keep the same design consist across all three pieces. Sliders look easy enough and I imagine the rear bumper will be easier then the front. Im probably going to do bolt on instead of weld on. Im on the fence of getting tubes bent for me...

Unfinished bumper held up fine. Quick stop in Joshua Tree as we made our way to Tuscon.

Still not done yet but Im back from said road trip and the bumper didnt fall off👌 Next up -Cut out and Install fog lights + mount -Fabricate and install headlight and grill protectection using 1 1/2" or 1 3/4" steel pipe -Fabricate and install inner trust pieces to fortify the bumper -Install...

Top getting plated off, ran the metal about 3/4" to an 1" past the plastic. Such a massive lip for a few reasons: 1: Accessory mounting surface 2: A good step for working inside of the engine bay 3: 1 3/4" inch bars need a mounting surface. With the top looking good I finshed the inside of...

Im still alive, just been busy, also not very good at documenting the progress. I get carried away and forget to take pictures of every step. Before I got too carried away with the rest of the bumper I wanted to check the clearance of the winch and also the control box. The clutch handle just...

Ya that looks like the cbi bumper

First Snow!
