What do you guys think of this?

O like it, would be cooler with a bit of a chamfer on the two corners, but you could do that on your own if you wanted it to save money, Slick man! Very nice!

Hey storm what is "chamfer"

 

[Darkrealms]

FOr the bumper i was thinking 1/4 inch or 3/16 and for the quarter panel gruards i was thinking 1/4. I thought about it and i might not even put the bars on there. I maybe i'll ask how much extra it would cost for an angled back but i'm trying to spend as little money as possible.

Yeah, I made my yotas front bumper all 1/4" but I think now I would make the main impact points 1/4" and the rest 3/16". Oh, and remember to make the mounting brackets out of 3/8" as well : )
Have fun

sweat thread i like foxfab's one day when all else is almost done then, i will have one of these sweet bumpers at a low cost!

 

[BlueCruiser84]

Yeah that's basically what i'm trying for. I like all the ones i've seen so far, I just want to have the best functionality with the lowest cost.

Thanks for the replies'

Looks familiar....

I definitely like it. I've been planning on adding some upper quarter protection to mine for a while. Though I'm planning on angling it upwards a bit more than what yours looks to be.

Sexy. But here's a couple suggestions:

Extend it out farther back so that it can be used as a step to reach anything that may ba on the roof. Also, with it extended out you're able to install dual pivots, which I would also recommend. I really like the pattern though. I may just have to steal it and design my own after it

 

[theferg]

I agree on extending it out further. I've been trying to figure out the best way to add a pivot or two for a tire carrier on mine and I didn't give myself much room to work with...

Yeah, single pivot on a 60 series is the kiss of death, not only is it like a farm gate when you're in camp, but you have make it *ultra* beefy to keep it from sagging when open.

the only thing i would add (thats my metalic tan 62 pictured by foxfab) is that if you add a latter i really like having the top flat for standing .

[BlueCruiser84]

yeah after seeing fox fabs i decided that i would have to make it stick out further because those dual pivots are awesome.

teferg: That is exactly what i want mine to look like, hitch and everything. Do you have any closeup shots of how you have the hitch in there?

 

[SS_Storm]

Chamfer is a machining term for when you pit say a 45* angle on the edge of a part so instead of rounding the corners or keeping them square you have a nice edge there,

 

[BlueCruiser84]

oh i got ya. I had never heard that before.
