I am in the middle of building a custom tube bumper to replace the factory P.O.S. bumper. I have put some pictures and text on my webpage. I will be adding more pictures soon.

Looks very nice and stout. I was going to do something similar till I got in a wreck and Geico handed me a check for 500$. Then I couldn't resist the beauty and ease of getting the ARB. Any finished pics?? BTW, I love that Patriot Blue, I always wish I had gotten that instead of silver. Peace

Great looking bumper! Also now I know how I should make my brackets for my bumper. Mines going to be a tube pre-runner style.

Nice brackets. I was going to do a crossbar like that, but I just used 1/4" for the whole bumper. :dunno:
