looks good but it hangs so low, it seems like it'll catch on anything you drive off of...

this might be a little bit better of a pic. the jeep sits about 1.5 inches higher then this pic from tire to wheel well lip.

You are gonna kill your Jeep pulling all that, and with the big tires to boot. I feel sorry for the Jeep. Did ya swap and V-8 in there are something.

ahh, it will pull it. before my trail rig became an offroad only vehicle we used it to pull our 19' Baja boat. We did not get anywhere very fast but it would get us there and back (thank God for surge brkes!)
As afar as the bumper build, I would taper up the ends and add some rear 1/4 protection. Like mine

i planned on tapering the ends and wrapping it around. planned on tappering it to 2"x2" and capping it off. still want to raise the tire and tilt it a little so its parallel with the back glass.
the jeep had no problems pullin my buds yota.
the nuts are from "spencers" from the mall. not the real truck nuts but there sure were cheaper ($10 compared to $40) i was told that they're supposed to be outlawing them but what do i care? lol. i want a bumper sticker that says "help the blue balls" with an arrow down.
