Beautiful BJ71 Bumper Build.

[Ratpuke]

The BJ71 is the commuter rig these days and it needs a bumper. Im not exactly sure what I want to build but I've come up with a few ideas - mainly like Orange's but with a front hoop. Just something pretty basic. I plan to tackle building the rear one as well as the stock bumper doesn't allow for a larger rear tire to be carried. Anyway, if you have any suggestions through them out here. I'll post pics here as I progress.

Suggest something like my wagon, where I didn't really care about looks and went for simple and turned out OK:

Low tube would look cool. Like this but no stinger. similar on the back. 3x4" rectangle with tube wrapped around the back. beefy and easy.

Maybe. Only have plans in the works for the front one. Hope to make progress, finally, this weekend.

Step 1. Clean out the 77 by taking out all the seats while you wait for your bud to be done his child minding activities for the day.
