Where'd you get that rear bumper?

 

He made it. It’s in his build thread

 

Well dang it. My Fab skills aren't going to get me that far. (Lack of a pipe bender doesn't help either).

 

Well I’m sure if you ask him nicely lol

 

If he wants to build another one of those... I'd ask him nicely with beer and cash.

 

Let’s make a bumper Matt.

 

I'm down

Let's do this!

 

@Pella... Do you have a pipe bender? (The only part we'd need it for is the sides that come out to protect the lower bed side behind the rear tire.) I think everything else would be square stock and plate.

I'm serious, I'll start ordering parts lol.

Wanna do a swing out too?

 

Anyone interested in a GO LIGHT. ?

 

Seen it mounted on a jeep.

 

Wireless remote control 360° LED. LIGHT.

 

I made it come back to the frame. I used the stock, exhaust hanger location. There is holes on the drivers side as well. Just tack some nuts there and your good.

If you’d like I can supply all the bends, it would be 2 90 degrees that go along the bed and 2 which will go to the frame. I can cut them long so you can get it to what ever size you want

Let me know.

Original design = @Box Rocket

@Fernando also has a similar design

 

Right on brother! @Pella and I are going to get together sometime this week and start planning this out. I will definitely let you know if we need those bends... As well as post pics of the progress.

 

Sounds good,

Post progress pics/final result here

Anyone running all 4 spare tires on their rig?
Steelies I mean.

Plenty of people do, I almost did. Some go with the FJ steel wheeels, tundra or just stock spares.

Pros: cost, durability

Cons: weight, backspacing/width

If I remember correctly the wheels run on the narrower side, so most end up running pizza cutters. This is why some aim for the FJ/ tundra Steelies as they are a bit wider.

 

Yes sir! Although, i been leaning to something simpler and low key

 

This dude I saw at costco was:
