Yeah It will take a soft impact or some weight. But thats it for now. I'm fabbing something up as we speak. So it will be supported from inside the fender. I just need to figure out what Im going to tie it into. The frame would be Ideal. I will be installing a 3" body lift in a couple weeks so I'm waiting until that point before I make this support bracket. as it will change all the dimension's
But don't worry when its completely finished Ill be able to hit a deer without worries.

As for floating the support bracket. Yeah I don't want it to touch any sheet metal for just that reason.
Everything is going to change after the body lift, So Ill just wait until than before I make any decsions.
Thanks for your input.

just had a thought... you mention 3" PA lift. and needing the auto shift linkages....
thats a body lift then... and that brushguard and fendermounts of the hood cage arent goign to fit with a brushguard as the brushguard is attached to the frame.. and the body is about to move up 3"

It's cool that you tried, but it doesn't look like quality.
That thing on the other hand...

YUP .. I going to weld a 3" Plate into the bottom, Probably beef up the bumper a bit too after that. And than support the top brace. This is kinda phase 1 of the project
Oh and Big RED Shackles. I like shackles
