Getting a new XJ ready for recovery duty at work today. Need tow points on the front and the bumper was beat.
I removed stock parts except the bumper brackets. I used those to attach the tube to. Then I bent an upper tube to wrap around under the grill and a lower to meet up at the ends.
Plated the center.
Made a pair of shackle points.
Painted satin black.
And reinstalled stock bumper cover end caps.
Took me about 4 hours and used 50 bucks worth of metal. Nothing special but it works for what we will use it for.
Overall we have $680 in this Jeep. including purchase price.
