For Sale 80-series AOE front bumper - NORCAL

[jcardona1]

I know I'm gonna kick myself for selling this but with the direction I foresee my build going, it's time to go for a minimalist approach. Might just do a simple tube bumper or no bumper with just a winch mount. Anyway, these are $1100 from AOE. Asking $750 firm. Located in Sacramento area.

Only changes made to the bumper were the cutouts for the turn signals (included) and tabs welded on for the 30" light bar. I'm also keeping my bottle opener Bottom half is coated in Monstaliner, top half is rattle canned. If I were buying these thing, I'd simply scuff it all up and rattle can the whole thing in a solid color. End up with a textured bottom half, good to prevent road chips.

Bumper is still up for grabs but I wouldn't even know how to go about shipping this thing. How would I even package it up!?

I know! Love the styling of this bumper but I need something with less metal up front

Bubble wrap and tape the whole thing up.

Bring to Grayhound and send off to new owner.

Think it would hold up to being tossed around? I could easily do that, but would hate to have it arrive with damage to the new owner

It's a used metal bumper. It will be fine.

Sacramento to Texas would be about the same price too. Only problem is the bumper weights over 100lbs. About a 116lbs if I remember correctly.

Called and spoke with a service rep, greyhound has 0 tolerance on the weight. It's 100 pounds or less, lol I asked the guy if I could pay a surcharge and he said if it's 101 pounds we cannot ship.

I have had good luck shipping with SAIA a big freight carrier, pick up up at their location to save even more! GLWS

Darn! If you're serious about it, try to get some freight quotes like the one newtomelx mentioned above. Shouldn't be too bad for a short distance.

Bump!

I have had good luck shipping with a freight company to New York from Texas my 80's 4x4 labs rear bumper. Bolt and strap it down to a pallet and drop it off at the facility. It was a pretty painless transaction on my end.

It was about $190 to ship IIRC

Wish they made these for the 100 series. Awesome truck!

Actually weighs 116.5lbs, you cut out the light holes, but you welded the light tabs.

There you go! Somebody wants this thing, find the shipping company and get a quote (I'm at 95670). If you like the number I'll take care of the rest
