Jude's new bumper, take it away Jude

 

[Volunteer]

Oops, here it is, LOL

 

[Bang Bang]

Nice minion.........and nice bumper too.

Is that the one Kevin at Southern Style Speed made for you? He does some great fab work and is local.

 

[Ole Colony]

Yes that is Kevin's prototype. He put it on the 100 series section for feed back and interest. He is thinking about changing the plate and recovery points.

looks different.

Did ya notice a Big difference in Gas Millage. I've got a buddy who put a tube bumper on his GEO, and lost like 2 mpg. Apparently the bumpers actually made it kinda aerodynamic...

Thanks

Yea but is the Geo even making a 100HP? At 2800lbs I'm sure anything you bolt onto will knock ur mpg's down but when it gets 25/30 you have plenty to spare, LOL We can bolt all the accessories we want on the cruisers and we get the same crappy mpg's but then who bought it for the mpg's anyway

TRUTH right there!

Not sure about the gas mileage. I took the stock size tires and rims off to repaint them and put on some steel tundra rims. The tires are about 1" taller and the rims are heavy.

I was playing around with the shape of the plate and think it looks better. If I could figure out how to post pictures I would post for opinions.

Jude, upload the pics to photobucket or another image hosting site. Then copy and paste the links they provide for posting to forums. Easy peasy. Or just email them to me or Larry and we can post them for you.

What to you guys think? The recovery points cut back flush and angled back. And the skid plate pie shaped to match the angle of the front plate.

Think it looks good bud, trail ready, however I don't think that white is going to stay white long.

 

[Ole Colony]

That is melamine (laminated particle board) just playing with the shape.

 

[Bang Bang]

Paint the melamine black. It will look MUCH better. And, yes, I know that you will not be leaving it on the truck. You might also consider going with a black hawse fairlead. The silver rollers look very obtrusive on the front of your rig in my opinion.

Gotcha

 

[John Stw]

I think it looks good in white.

I placed an order yesterday for an Iron Man lift. I am hoping it comes in for the wrenching session.
