Looks great!
You have any more of that tubing left?
I have no use for the aftermarket exhaust pipe bumpers either.
Deer are going to run from you lol.

 

That's going to leave a mark, I wouldn't what to be on the business end of that bumper, great job

 

No its steel, left over 12ga from the flatbed

 

Left to do: skid plate, cages for turn signals, maybe a brush guard? and paint!

 

cut the turn signals into the bumper.... will look cleaner

 

Any pictures of the attachment brackets? I would like to see for some ideas.

 

Totally agree. Not only will it nook cleaner, but if you cut them into the wings at a slight angle, it will give it a meaner look. just my .02

 

Yup thats the plan, they want a lot of money for those leds though haha

 

I like it. Looks heavy and beefy. I agree with the light idea, will look alot cleaner.

 

Brush gaurd, yay or nay?

 

I found 4" tube and and made mine an air tank for 911 fixes on the trail

 

TFE

Would have to see it. But most likly would overcomplicate that bumper
Looks good the way it is.

P.S. do you like your air shocks? Im torn. /

 

thats better looks great dude ......

 

maybe a small hoop for some lights ???

 

Yea, do a hoop around the top of the bumper, so I would know how mine will look..lol

 

damn work computer . I cant see no pics...............

 

I've been wondering about adding weight in the form of bumpers to my stock suspension and I saw where Thatguy mentioned 200 pounds. Is that a rule of thumb in terms of adding accessories? If it turns out to be more, what's the best way to accommodate it?

Sorry for the thread hijack. Been a fabricator most of my life and I appreciate what you guys are building. Nice work.

 

Yeah I like the air shocks quite a bit, I'm sure they dont ride as good as some others but its a pickup and it should ride like one.

200 pounds is probably as heavy as you should go cause it is just a half ton, you can upgrade to thicker torsion bars. I have no idea why you could possibly want a bumper heavier or stronger than this one though haha.

 

Don't want one that heavy but I can see where the pounds might add up pretty quickly after accessories get added (winch, lighting, brush guard, etc.). Just curious to see what, if anything, can be done to accommodate it if a guy were to cross that 200 pound threshold.

 

I like this one. good work
