Very nice! More of what I'm looking for. Will it accept a winch? Lights? I met you last month at the Rising Sun meeting. I'll call or e-mail you about price/lead time/wanna do another/etc.

added some light mounts for the Hella 4000s (i love these lights)
84/syver cut some top plates to close off the frame and add quite a bit of corner support. thats one piece of 1/4" plate :D

OK, now you have me liking it. I hate tube bumpers, but that is SWEET! If I didn't think it would look stupid when combined with my rear bumper I would want one.

!Now get to work on my sliders!
 
Nice work Jim,

Did you have your powder coater do those?

If you put those lights on the other bumper, how would you do it? Hang down from the hoop or go right next to the hoop on each side?

I'm loving this bumper more and more....
 
Nice :D
 
Now I did,

Sounds like fun.
 
I want one!! how much? haha just kidding...I cant afford one...

Jim, I never suspected you had such hairy moobs ;)
 
Drool....

 
84C,
When you get around to mounting that winch, post up some updated pics. I'm wewy intewested.
My motive is that I;m looking to see the minimum distance from the grill and valance a bumper would have to sit to fit a winch (upright style). I'm not against chopping the valance if it gets me tighter to the body w. the bumper. Your's looks pert near as close as one could get.

You got it. We built the bumper with winch in mind. I should get one mounted up in the next couple of months. Ill keep ya posted. I have some newer photos but to lazy to go get my camera right now. Ill shoot for tomarrow.
 
What tube did you use to make the bumper? Could it support the weight of the truck if you lifted by the bumper with a high-lift?

Its all 2" .120 wall tubing. I just might have to hi lift it and send you a pic:)
 
I went next door(s) yesterday & inspected them both: very simple, real tight to the body, & reinforced in all the proper places. About all they might need is recovery points.

I'm really just sucking up to 2Bad so he'll start my sliders & quarter protection.
