Thanks dude! there will be more mods to come. I will install a trailer hitch receiver in the middle and I am going to integrate some frame stiffeners in the future. I will also probably stick some light tabs on there and maybe a brush hoop.GSequoia said:
It's all one piece of 2X6 1/4 wall. I marked where the bends needed to be then cut out the inside of the bend then used a 2x4 to bend the radius, then I welded plate into the parts I cut out in the new shape and there it was. I have better plan for the next one I make though. I will cut out only the parts that needs to be cut so I will not have to make plates to weld in. I will just weld the seams back together after the bend is made. This was not first quality material because I am poor and could only afford remnant material but it did the job. I made the bends on the fron by just cutting a line on the backside and bending it together and welding the seam.Skullvarian said:

Just a general question (slightly pointed to you
You call your shop Jeeperjohn Fabwerkz??!scrappy again said:Very nice John! Why no winch? Have any shots of the mounts?

Honestly I didn't know that was how you spelled it. I am not operating as a shop so it's just out of the blue.
The mounts are only using the 3 mounting points of the stock bumper right now. I will integrate some frame stiffeners at a later time. The shackle mounts are set into the bumper mounts inside and are fully welded. The shackle mounts are directly tied to the bumper mounts. I haven't decided what kind of frame stiffeners to make yet. I want to try to integrate a piece of 2X4 inside the frame rail somehow. Anyway this will do for now.scrappy again said:
Yeah, I got about 30 hours into it. That time could be greatly reduced with better equipment but I be po' so I do what I can with what I got. Thanks everyone for the replies.crazyjim said:
Yeah, the ends are capped. I will put an air fitting into it when I get my onboard air setup in and use it for an air tank.danwho said:

Thanks for the compliments. I will be adding a hoop and a few other little things later on. I don't have a tubing bender so I will have to go have a talk with Billy.KingOfTheHill said:
