Got my Bumper Done!

[csudman]

all constructive critizism is welcomed

I hate the Stinger. Way to wide. It looks more like a horse shoe. I'd make it slimmer. But thats just me.

Looks good, if you do alot of camping now you'll only have to find ONE tree to hang a hammoc from... or make it a bit bigger and you got a handy spot for porch swing to mount, handy at a drive-in Just kidding.
Personally I wouldnt want something sticking out that far, I have a bad habit of whacking my noggin on my rear hatch when it's open let alone having something stick out that far in the front when I spend more time underneath the nose than I do in the back... probably end up with a permanent crease in the back of my skull...handy feature for keeping hats on.
Bumper itself looks good, got a bit more detailed pic on that and how you mounted it ??
Did you weld any light tabs on ?

the first 4 weeks we were in the classroom, so it realy only took about 5 weeks, only getting to work on it 35 minutes TOPS per day. so somewhere around 10-12 hours. i dont have any close pics of how i mounted it but its mounting plate is welded to the stock tow hook brackets. the light tabs are still on the to do list right now. next hour im gonna move the tow hooks up to the top of the bumper on the winch plate.

hint: you can do more with good grammar and communication skills than you can with a welder.

Nice work on the bumper-- but I don't buy it about it protecting the radiator. We had a guy locally who was bragging about how his stinger would protect his Radiator in a rollover-- until he rolled the jeep and a rock punctured his peft corner of the radiator. A conservative bumper like an ARB with the header tube would have prevented it.

Looks good for a first project.
Keep up the good work.

Man, that is a ballsy way to test your rig.

Stingers like that make a good place to sit your butt down on while wrenching on your engine too.
