    I've been working on my front bumper for a few days now. I was going to weld the top tube on tonight, but my 220v breaker broke, so hopefully more tomorrow night.

    here's the build/progress so far...

    crossmember mounted in with front mounts only.

    [​IMG]

    side mounts welded up and bolted on, crossmember ends capped.

    fitting the top tube, its now cut and ready to weld

    about 30 bucks total. I just go to the steel shops in town and pick out of their "scrap" pile, and it's usually only a few bucks a piece

    nope, no drawing, started it based off of the avid offroad bumper, but it's gona be a bit different now.


    Garret, I'd give it to you if it would fit, but I made it custom for my truck, it was mounted to my messed up crush plates, and still wouldn't mount properly.
    not worth it for you.
