i had a buddy of mine build up some rock sliders, a front bumper and a rear bumper for me. and i think it turned out pretty well. thought i'd share with some of ya fellas.











then i got some paint on the rear and sides. still need to paint the front. but i had a wheeling trip so it got postponed until next weekend. hopfully nice enough to paint outside.





mounted up my turn signals behind the bumper and away from the rocks.







then i welded on some d-links on the front. if you tilt your head a little there straight. lol thats my handy work.

 

wow, that bumper fits so well! i like it.

 

on the stinger i wanna get some mesh well plate like kinda stuff with round holes to just fill in the empty front. and protect it just a little bit but allow air flow. so i need to get down to the local steel mill to see what i can find.

thanks nick! glad ya like it! i got some pics of it in action. but i need a buddy to burn it on a disk for me. got some pretty good use out of it yesterday. and saturday when i pre-ran a trail for yesterday.

 

holy moly!!!! thats sweet! got any pictures of the rear bumper not mounted on? VERY NICE!

 

X2 on what he said. Nice job.

 

nice! I can't wait to get some side slider hoops added to my sliders!

 

very nice i like how it fits

 

Looks good, something similar to what I want to build for my yeehaw!

 

i do not. the sides and rear bumper are welded into place. a plate welded to my frame welded to the tube. and gussets for even more reinforcements after that.

the rear is welded to square tubing welded to my frame and it actually curves up to the very back. i should get pics of that too. looks really smooth flowing. and gave me some clearance that i was after. left the front as a bolt on and added brackets to the lower frame to help keep it from wrapping upwards if i went head on with a tree/rock.

doooo it man! totally worth it. it was like care free wheeling last weekend. and with the sagging rear brought back to normal height everything went well. i got tired of breaking tail lights and bashing in my rusted panels. so i invested in these. so far there holding up very well.

wish i would have had paint on them before i let it sit out in the rain

but the paint helped. along with some scotch brite.

 

Looks good. Similar to what I'm planning on. Kinda gave me inspiration lol

 

Looks great.

 

I like the upper tube on the front bumper! Nice lines. !

 

The lines of the top tubes make it look angry at something, did a Jeep just drive by?

 

lol ^^ no doubt. it was going to be slanted even more inward. the ones he made really hope in. but i didn't like that style a whole lot. so we tried to level them out a little bit with the body lines. but it still turned out kinda slanted. and i actually dig it alot.

Thanks for all the comments guys. here's a video of it standing up to a tree. lol a little one. i just didn't turn fast enough. =P

 

Oh how I miss the black hills. Armor looks good!
