Drove to SD Sunday AM to Pick Up A Bumper

[fjc8871]

Looks good but you should have used Oury grips,

Those Oury lock on grips are beefy.

I would still grease it then put the grip on. I had mine covered with a rubber glove and wrapped in tape but moisture still finds it's way in and I had to clean it off with a brass wheel and dremel.

Good idea. Thanks. I picked up one of the led plate strips from Pep Boys yesterday. Just need to wire it up now.

Damn Bruno, your makin me hungry!.. But getting back to your bumper... you should pack that grip with some grease to keep it from rusting..

Oh.. thats what someone else said too...

Just wondering if whoever built this bumper, would or does build fronts?? Thanks

 

[fjc8871]

Hit him up. User name is sean. I am sure he can fab something up.

Hey Nick! I think jerry cans and a small basket for cooler or other would be great on our bumpers. Sean is a great guy and put a lot into his work. Get a bike grip and protect the spindle. Not sure how much damage would happen but better be safe you know? I saw they sell plastic sleeves for the spindle but for what I had laying around it's perfect. You can get a pair of take off grips at a Wheel World for like $4-$7. I am sure any sporting goods shop has them too.

Jerry can carrier is what I'm waiting to do. Just don't have the money right now. The bike grip is a great idea.

Here it is all completed and powder coated. I have been in contact with Sean about the raw bumper he has been building. Thanks to Nick, Sean was able to test fit the bumper on his rig to make sure it lined up on mine. Not all rigs are created equal With some work from Sean, it's all good.

Before:

Almost there:

Tadaaa!:

Oh and Landtank's BlueFan Clutch mod kept the rig at in temp between 186 - 193 degrees per scangauge. Awesome mod!

Nice bumper, very clean lines. You might want to get some side hoops welded on.

Love the bumper and sent Sean a PM for some addtional info. I am in Long Beach and was wondering if it might be possible to swing by and see the bumper in person?

Yes sir anytime. I am in La Mirada not far from LBC. Sean has improved on the mounts and spindles since he did mine. PM me and we can meet up.
