Finally Finished Rear Bumper

The goal was to have a bumper to sorta match the front. I wanted it to be sorta easy, to add a little protection to the sides, and flow with the rest of my junk.

No tire carrier, but I will be adding another plate to mount the two shackles to match the front. Once I add the plate, it will give me back the space on the sides that the heat took away.

On the corner pieces I added a bottom tube to add a little strength and a bottom protection to the corner of the qtr panel.

Not bad for the 1st rough attempt I think, the next one will be powder coated.

NOTE: The wrinkle paint did not wrinkle as much as I wanted, but it all good, if it gets scratch, which it will, I will just take it off and repaint it.


1/4" steel for mounting to stock location, with upgraded bolts.


2" top and 1 1/2" bottom


Here are the corner pieces that bolt onto the middle section


1/4" side mounts


Middle section mounted


I made the holes a little bigger so the corners could be adjusted up and down






Rubber ends caps will be added, and a spacer to move it away from the body


Matches the rest of the added on junk

Very nice! I like the tube bumpers. Are you gonna cap the ends of the tubes?

Keil

Looks great!

The goal is to place rubber ends caps on them like the front bumper.

Mac

gotcha that will look real good then

Keil

Looks pretty legit. Definately got the tube theme completed as far as bumpers and sliders go. Good work!

looks great. definetly interested in it. we will have to talk. i see that you painted and installed my old flares. looks good.
did you get the tire carrier yet?

damn nice, way more intricate then my caped box steel lol, do you think theyd get hung up sticking out as far as they do? They look really good.

LEO: Yeap those are you old flares, thanks btw. I have ordered one, but the company called and said they do not have any onhand. So, spare tire will be in-da-back

Hung up, I'm guessing yes however I'm also banking on my new tires sticking out a little to help with that, but there are some trials that it will hang up on, hopefully once I get them capped, it will help shield major hang ups.
