Long Travel BS Thread

I Pulled My Brother In LawsTaco Out With An Engage Bumper Vs. My Homemade Bumper And His Twisted Like That Too..Mine Held Strong

 

I've yanked people out with my all pro

 

My DTF bumper has been used to pull me out 3 separate times cuz I was trying to crawl behind a 4x4 and it hasnt even tweaked. Plus took out the whole driver side head light and fender to the wheel on a Border Patrol vehicle and still going strong... And slid on the bumper at Superstition. Probably the only thing that kept me from going end over end.... So BIG PROPS to DTF!!

 

Oh damn!? Yeah I built Nate's bumper a million and a half years ago then he sold it to Bryan. My quality is far better now and I'm now using a 220 machine. It was all .120 wall HREW and had some cold lap. I'm really surprised it lasted this long with all the beatings it took on both trucks.

 

nice.



im not bagging on dtf at all though if thats what you think. it was his first or second bumper he ever built. that bumper has been to hell and back quite a few times. if i never wouldve gotten stuck, it never wouldve happened. when i originally go hit head on by a sand rail, im pretty sure that ended up cracking the welds. its a powdercoated bumper and after that, i started to see a little rust gather up where the weld was so it was almost a matter of time before the weld broke. it has my stamp of approval. i beat the living shit out of it.

 

This is literally the first thing that I ever made too. That's why I sold you the glass and gave you the bumper for free lol.

 

We all live and learn! Your current work is badass and overbuilt....... I love overbuilt.

 

Figured that much I think everybody thought you were pissed lol

me too

 

yea hahaha. when that happened i just started laughing.. that damn duramax breaks all my shittttt. whatever man, its all apart of the sport.

 

I've followed your work man. I like it!

When I had my shop we had two things painted on the wall, "nothing ever broke from being over built" and "88mph means serious shit" ha

 

Yeah I crashed into a wall going 70.... Bumper held up fine
Lol

 

Well you weren't going 88....

 

Chris......you're alive!?

 

Well i my truck did ok this weekend
