Home made Front bumper!
Well I haven't added much to my FJ in some time. I've been concentrating on my 87 4runner. But know its time to turn my attention to the FJ. I've been wanting a new front bumper forever. So here it is,


The center section is a brush gaurd off a late 90's Suburban, that I got off of Craigslist.

The wings are 1/8" plate steel.



The bars are .120 DOM tubing.
The mounting are via 1/4" angle iron 4" wide.



I have yet to install the Superwinch I have. That will come soon.

Here are some more pics!!!!

Thanks!
I'm guessing around 80lbs. without the winch, the winch is about 60lbs..
So around 140lbs + or -.
