@TonyP has commissioned me to build some custom bumpers and sliders for him and graciously allowed me to use the rig for a few other R&D items.

Parts have been rolling in over the past two weeks and will continue to do so over the next few weeks.

Going to happen:
Front and rear bumpers
Sliders with full tread plates
Roof rack Lo-Pro Expo w/sunroof cut out and added upper adjustable crossbars
Tailgate storage lid
Front tow points

If time and funds allow:
Skid plates
RLCA skids
Rear storage drawers
CB antenna mount
LED light brackets

Pictures and details to come.

Enjoy,

Jason

I'm game if I can get a donor.

If I was on the same side of the country I'd already be there. Someone with an lx, help us out!

I'll tell you all now, the next opening I have for R&D and custom builds is the end of May/ first of June. I've had 9 inquiries for bumper builds since I started this thread today.

Can't wait to see the finished rear bumper!


I'll get started on the rear bumper next week. I popped a capacitor on my 350 machine so I dusted off the little 211 and got a few things tacked up this morning.

Frame for the 4 can basket OR 35 YETI + 1 can OR... Roadie 20 + 2 cans..... OR...................

Is that basket going to be on the right side?

I figure Tony will go that direction. More details to come. I prefer the tire behind the driver. But, this bumper will be a dual swing with a dual tire set up or a tire and basket set up. His needs will dictate the set up from trip to trip.
