Front and rear bumpers

[woytovich]

Option 3 for the one you build for me... but I want it mounted higher by about 4-5 inches (enough so the TOYOTA shows under the bar and the top bar is just at the hood lip) and still angled forward some like a stinger.

I will be trimming the lower valence and grille on my 60 and recessing my Warn M12k back as close to the radiator as possible, it will be mounted on a plate bolted to the top of the framerails.

My v2 front bumper will be a combo of what JK Customs built for MMW and the 4+ front, with high mount like what Mark shows above, if I can work that out.

Quite similar to 2mbb's. JK Custom's front bumper is perfect. https://forum.ih8mud.com/60-series-wagons/52001-jk-customs-prototype-fj62-winch-bumper.html

Progress

Made some progress last night on the bumper. Got the stinger mounted along with some side support tubes. This thing looks tough.

Still to do; skids for the bottom, winch mount, roller fairlead mount and possible some plate.

nice work.


I am ready to see the rear bumper!

 

[woytovich]

Man this is SOOOOOOOO close to what I want. I'm going to need to talk to you about my version and how much it would cost... once you are done here.

Looking forward to seeing it as you finish it up....

Finish up

I am hoping to finish the bumper tonight. I usually do this on the weekends around my full-time job, but am throwing a little time at it this week to try and finish it for the weekend. The rest is pretty straight forward with exception of the winch mount. I want to make sure it is nice and strong, but trying to keep it as light as I can.

LOOKS F#$@KING GREAT!!!!!!! I can'wait to see it in person! With work like that Justin you will have them standing in line! The rear bumper is next for sure!

You are speaking my language!

And I like that it allows the character of the "face" of the truck to still show through. My ECB bar,the ARB bars and most custom-built bars take that away...

Any though given on this one to connect some side fender bars?

 

[jsix321]

Its possible

I think it would be nice also to have the wrap around bars that would connect to the sliders. That might have to be an option for the future.

 

[iaintscared1969]

That will be a little later but it is on the list.

With a little platform to sit on while wrench'n in the engine bay.

keep up the good work.

I am looking forward to the rear bumper. That is what I need.

I like #4 and #5, 2nd. #5 looks good man, good job hoss! Look forward to your rear bumper!

 

[kling-on]

Nice i like it

I still want this type on my Trugy

Option 1

I am thinking ARBY's...lol

Finished

Randy came over and we made some winch mounts and some sliders for the brackets. I am suprised on how much I like this design. I have all my measurements and going to transfer them over to my AutoCAD. With this I should be able to make more without having his cruiser here. I am ready to start on the rear bumper now. I have a couple custom orders I need to fill, and after that lets see what a rear will look like. Down the road I would like to offer a plate style as well. The one thing I really like about this one is that it's light weight for what it is. Let me know what ya'll think.

 

[jsix321]

Looks good

Couple more for mud

 

[goodol84]

that is awesome! one of a kind! quick question, I don't know much about bumpers yet so this might be a dumb question but where are the recovery points? Do you just rig around the tubes or did he not want any picking points??

 

[iaintscared1969]

The bumper came out perfect. Justin is a great guy to work with and he took my vision of what I wanted and put it together. He really put a lot of thought into it and would guess it weighs only 50lbs add the winch I would say around 120. But it gives me awesome clearance and didn't add a bunch of weight. Plus it would be easily shipped for you guys wanting to place an order.
The recovery points will be later I had some other items to put on the truck as well as fixing the tranny leak. But the rear bumper will be coming up and I got to tell you I can't wait to see what he comes up with. The best thing is that it is original, strong, light, and it is very reasonably priced. So if you want a bumper that no one else has shoot Justin a PM and he will do you right. And again Justin SUPER JOB!!!

BTW the finger was broken clean.

A few after I got it all primered and painted.
