bumpers recommened for under 800$

[motorcityxj]

The reason I don't list prices is that at least 80% of what I build are one of a kind custom bumpers based on what the customer asks for. Best part of my job though seeing the cool stuff people come up with!

I know your specialty is the custom stuff AJ, but from a marketing standpoint i really think you ought to have 3-4 commonly asked for designs with standard prices, but at the same time make it very clear this is the base and common stuff and you like to get wild and do anything. Lots of folks will look at your site and not see prices and just go to someother shop where prices are posted. You must do good just based on your reputation alone (which is great never heard anything bad) ....... but i want to see ya suceed as much as possible and think this change could only help you. eace:

Check out Rock Lizard Fabrications, they do not list rear bumpers but Martin will build them for you.

the plate is mounted in the reciever hitch, very solid and strong and matches the body lines nice and clean.

You know I've been debating that for awhile now and I think you just kicked me in the butt enough to do that. There are several designs that people keep asking about, I just don't want anyone to think that it's the only choices they have. Customers are the ones who steer what I build so I want to keep that going! Anyways, better start changing the site Thanks!

I really like this guy's stuff, and his prices!

 

[kewlkatdady]

yeah the prices are good, but I wouldn't try to pull up a weed in the yard with those mounting points.

Not unless he beefed them up.

If by weeds you mean jihugeon oak trees... then okay. But:

X2, for 766.00 you can get a 1/4" plate steel bent front winch bumper and rear bumper ( more if you want the rear to have a spare tire rack)

great guys and best products out there

 

[kewlkatdady]

He has obviously beefed them up since last time I looked at his bumpers...

I'm glad to see that...

but that is why I added:

[Tugboat369]

Some Pictures.

That is all I have right now. I will take some after I clean off the mud.

 

[xrayjeeper83]

Does it only use 3 hole each side or is there another bracket that bolts to it?

there is another bracket that extends another 9" down the side to use an additional 3 holes per side. It is shipped separate to save on shipping costs

I like the protofab winch bumper the winch sets low enough to not block the radiator to bad. The only down side is I had to attach a guard to the grill cause when the winch cable spooled back on and its not all perfect it rubs the paint the grill.

 

[88-xj-laredo]

Classified ads, I'm not sure what you have around where you are but try craigslist, I got a 4x4 Fab winch bumper for $150 with all the hardware, it had never been on a vehicle before.
Also on the local off-road forum I got a grill guard for $10 and a smittybilt rear tube bumper for $50.

Yeah. My rear bumper only used 14 grade 8 bolts to mount it up. Maybe I need to make some brackets or something!!
