You should throw some lights on it though

One I did:

 

[88rockxj]

didnt want to ruin my approach angle, winch will go on a multi mount and be able to be used on the front and the back. once the exo is built ill be putting reciever mounts on the sides so ill be able to even roll myself over. also get across a collapsed section of road thats carved out on the side of a hill, as long as theres somthing up hill to attach to of course. ill also be able to easily store the winch inside the jeep/garage away from the weather and thiefs, i plan to build some universal cables that can clamp to the battery so i can use my winch on any vehicle that has a hitch.

i just cut into the back side and rewelded it together to get the shape

it's not green, it's black. and that is a JCR stage 3 bumper. however, it will be for sale soon, because I have a winch bumper on the way

Starboard, I still think you did a wicked sick job on your bumper, I still have a few of your pictures saved from your original thread for when I start my bumper.

x2! that has got to be the nicest bumper I've seen. it's exactly what I want my front to look like.

Well, its not exactly a custom bumper, but it is one that isnt seen very often here on the west coast..... i am always getting asked about it.

Great fab work, superior fit & finish, quarter panel protection & an awesome tire carrier that gets your spare up and out of the way. No snagging it on ledges coming down or when climing up something steep.

Their stuff works!

little off topic, but what size tires and what height lift is that, looks great!

[GlennH]

[mattyj]

YES. I am positive they are 12.5! They dont list them on their website but trust me they make them.

 

[GlennH]

YES. I am positive they are 12.5! They dont list them on their website but trust me they make them.

well I'm glad to hear this as I really like that tire and may end up buying em now.

 

[red raider]

custom front bumper, that will be replaced soon.

custom rear with carrier:

 

[jaymo]

Ok ill throw some of mine in there.

On a side note all of the steel was free. That is why it is 2.5x2.5 square tube.

 

[buzzbombxj]

This is my bumper


The mounts are quarter and go through the bumper and there is a layre of 3/16 also where the shackle mounts. The center is peices of 3/16 with braces for when i add a winch.



The outer box tubing is only 8th, but with the gusseting i have yet to bend it. A final pic, because i am proud of my jeep.



Sorry you have to click, they were too big to host the normal way.
