Fabricated front bumpers.

[BrettM]

Hell will freeze over before I use the stock bumper mounts for anything. They are just scary!

You're from Michigan, you should know better than to say this. Hell freezes over every year for several months.

:laugh3:

 

[Pete M]

Ha ha! Not that Hell. :laugh3: And not my own personal hell either. You know, the rusty one under my truck that the department of transportation exacerbates further each year with their infernal roadsalt (pun intended). 'Cause the bolts under my truck are perpetually frozen in a different way due to the rust.
Jeep on!

Here's my front bumper. It started out as a piece of 1/4 inch c channel then it was bent/ cut and re welded. the "wings" are sheet. The tabs for the clevis (clevi?) are right in line with the frame.

Here's the back. It started out as a piece of box tubing. The clevis mount in the back is actually a 2 inch reciever tube with the hitch pin on the inside of the bumper. The top of the bumper comes of with one recessed allen head so you can get at the hitch and also for storage.

You do know this thread is 3 years old right.

This gets on my nerves.

If you SEARCH and find a related post and bring it back up from the dead you get the "You know this thread is ancient right?" statement. but if you start a new thread you get attacked by the SEARCH pirates!


I may as well post my project. It's no where near finished but it is started. THe picture of it on the Jeep is after I bolted up the brackets and tacked them in place. It's coming along slowly... It got a lil rusty from sitting around for so long waiting on me to start it!
