Not bad...doesn't seem like it would give much protection in a front-ender? I have a tendency to run into all kinds of crap on the trail. Is it welded to the frame or bolted?

 

[JnJ]

It seems to protrude (sp?) enough for me. My problem is usually backing into stuff on the trail.

It bolts to the frame, here is a shot:

I recall a pic of someone that backed a tree thru their rear window round here somewhere's...was that you? :angel:

I see your creative juices are flowing John.

 

[JnJ]

Santana, nope that was not me.

Scott, thanks....I think......

 

[Ralph]

Lookin good John. I like the minimalist approach.

John,
You have more metal in the truss over the 20 than in that bumper.

no doubt about it, those front hooks will see a ton of action in Moab, so its a good thing you spent your time making them beefy.

don't want to rip that off when I'm towing you from the city market.

good job.

 

[Hunter-LynchburgVa]

i like how you did the tow points before the steering. we all know what will get more use

[Beezil]

no doubt, he might as well bolt a bottle opener on the bumper next...and lounge chair brackets.

Looking good John. I might be redoing mine here soon. Ran into a guy at work that is giving me a small bearing 9" and we are going to redo my bumper with more ground clearance in mind. I have be drawing it up in autocad. I'll see if I can scan a picture to show ya'll.

 

[JnJ]

Wayne, LOL you might be right.

Hunter, gotta have priorities.

Beez, I like the bottle opener/lounge chair idea. Oh Beez, bit me.

Eric, I'd like to see the pictures.

 

[EricT]

Eric, I'd like to see the pictures.

I keep on changing it, but it will be final by the end of the week. Can you tell I am busy at work
