new hommade bumper and winch

yfz450chuck · 03-07-2008, 11:14 AM

got this bumper and winch finnished up, i think it turned out pretty good, i traded some labor to a friend, he built me this and i went completely through his 3 wheeler and fixed everything wrong with it. so what do youguys think??
he is going to build me rock sliders later too.

absouletly beautiful. i personally woulda put in some black diamond plate where the chrome is but never the less it looks good. is that the smitty built xrc8? if so let us know how u like it.

its powdercoated med gloss black, yes its the smittybuilt, and i havent tried it yet. the pieces inbetween the bars is stainless steel, black diomand plate woulda been pretty cool.

PoleVaulter95 · 03-07-2008, 11:26 AM

well if you get a chance you should post up more pictures of how it is mounted. is it just two bolts on each side. and maybe some pictures from farther away. the reason im asking so many questions is because i like the simplicity of the design and the fact that your using the smitty. (in the summer i plan to be doing a custom bumper with the same winch.)

yfz450chuck · 03-07-2008, 11:36 AM

ok, i will try to today if i have time

ADH8796 · 03-07-2008, 11:43 AM

If it were me I would PC the plating. But the bumper looks dange good.

bigtrucknwheels · 03-07-2008, 12:02 PM

scuba · 03-07-2008, 12:35 PM

Joe's Toy · 03-07-2008, 01:38 PM

***Corey*** · 03-09-2008, 07:14 AM

That is jaw dropping.
Very nice setup.

Yes, let everyone know how the new Smitty winch works too.
Have read about them on the forum here a bit.

yfz450chuck · 03-09-2008, 07:31 PM

used the winch today, worked awsome, but we are only talking about a 3500lb truck, and it is an 8000lb winch, but it did get me out of a tight spot, put alot of scratches in the truck today also
