As I said earlier in this thread, I never ran into a situation that I needed extra clearance from custom bumpers. Well, I was headed down to Moab for the first time, and judging from all the information that I could gather, I needed something to protect the body. Mainly approach and departure angles. So off came the bumper covers, and being my frugal self, went about figuring out how to make rear corner protection. The center section in the rear would work for my needs for the time being, and I left the front as it was. Eventually I flipped the front upside down to gain more approach. I wanted to continue the tube style from the sliders to the rear, as well as the front. So, the rear corners were built out of tube. We build a little platform off the ends to eventually tie some swing outs into, but money was limited (as it always is), so we only did the corner protection. We built recovery points straight off the side of the frame, and welded those in place.
