Hey all, my first post here, although I have been reading on this forum for months now, and gotten a crap ton of help from guys on here. I wanna start by saying that I have looked online for weeks trying to find "plans" for a winch bumper, to no avail. I am cheap, and poor, but I like nice things, so I am a DIY kind of guy. So I built my own bumper. I made a cardboard mock-up and saved the cardboard cut-outs in hopes that some guys may be interested in making on like mine, so I could share my design, which I was looking to do. Anyways, I'll try and post A pic. Any feedback on my craftsmanship is welcome, positive or negative. And I want to say that, yes. The bumper is made from 1/8" plate, which I know will not last of road, it is a "prototype" it you will. However, the bumper mount brackets(which are based off from that .PDF file floating around here) and the winch plate itself is all 1/4" steel. So it should hold while winching, just not a small tree, or any heavy bushes for that matter. anyway, I'm done talking. Just wanted to throw this out there, thanks!!
