My bumper

[DoctorPhate]

would be nice if I could see it..

The plan for the rear is to try to keep the same look but aliitle smaller since there is no winch going back there when i start that ill post up some pics

 

[azxj95]

I prefer the more low profile styles, but it looks great. I think it will look so much better with the clevis tabs in and the fairlead hole cut out. A stinger would make it look really good aswell. Great job, do you have a rear planned? By the way, do you know how much that weighs?

The weight isnt bad at all i think i dont have a prob picking it up i unbolted it and pulled it off my self to weld it up

 

[CherBear]

I like it. Subtle but beefy.

 

[DoctorPhate]

So where do I go to see this bumper? lol

 

[XJDP96]

looks good. i like how you mounted the winch behind the bumper. most winch bumpers stick out way to far and kill the approach angle and in my opinion it doesn't look good.

Good job dude! Looks like you replaced the whole cross brace in the front? I am tempted to do that to mine to make room for tranny and engine coolers and a fan.

 

[DoctorPhate]

I don't see anything lol.

:woohoo: That thing is great looking, do you want to build another one :roflmao:

 

[RCP Phx]

yep im going to be puting tow points on it the bumper itself bolts to the frame

Why didnt you extend the mounting bracket thru the bumper for your d-rings? You dont want them "surface" welded to the face of the bumper.
Also,how do you access all the controls?

love the winch mount. :thumbup:

Im going to remote mount the the controll box for the winch so ill beable to plug in the controller in the grill or somthing along those line as for the toe points that wont be surface mounted ill cut holes and slide them threw and weld them inside and to the bracket that bolts to the frame

Im going to remote mount the the controll box for the winch so I'll be able to plug in the controller in the grill or something along those lines

I removed the plug from the relay box and mounted it in the front grill.
The relay box was then mounted under the hood, next to the coolant bottle

How are you going to access the clutch handle?
I clocked the winch so a removable handle could be used through a hole in the bumper.
