My stainless mounting points, custom machined stainless bottle opener , on board air bracket/fitting also stainless, threaded light mounting blocks And a couple other doodads.

Those are stainless tie down points. For strapping down a canoe on the roof. Or hanging a backpack from at camp or anything else you can think of. I wanted utility out of my bumper. Not just for a winch and lights.

These threaded inserts can be used for anything I might want to add later. Like fishing rod holders, a mount to hold my jet boil stove, cb antenna mount. Or I'll be making posts that screw in on both driver and pass. side to use to wrap my winch line around if I'm doing a lot of winching and don't want to spool it back in every time.

My bumper mounted stainless bottle opener. I made this from a piece of 2" x 1/4" wall tube.

The stainless mounts on the main hoop can also be used to mount lights

One of the nicest I've seen!!

Stainless on board air mount. And I painted the stainless bottle opener and then polished the lip to reveal the stainless.

With soft shackle and Prolink. I ordered the stainless 7/8" material to machine my pins out of.

One of the nicest I've seen!!

Thanks for that! I was aiming to build the nicest 80 series bumper out there for expedition use. I hope I came close.

Hey JT If you see this I need a hood decal like the size of the tech one you did on Ingrid and Norman. But looks like this.

Just what's in black. The logo and my name. But in color. Either gray or the same color orange as my Prolink. Let me know. Ingrid says hi!
