Hey everybody
Well myself and a friend are both engineers and are looking to get into a side gig together doing some jeep fab work. We have done work together in the past such as installing lifts, building axles, suspensions, body armor, etc for TJs, YJs, and XJs. After my last idea we started to kick around some ideas about, (and more-so myself, being an XJ wheeler) about building some XJ specific items. I feel that for the most part the TJ, Yj market is already over saturated, and really how many different link mounts, bumpers, or tube fenders can you build and be different?
For those who didn't see my tail light thread heres a link

Ive been thinking about those, maybe some tube fenders, which aren't stupid priced, and fit decent (didn't hear the best reviews about H.O.R.E fenders)
and maybe at some point a prebent roll cage that doesn't need a bunch of tube added to it to be worthy of having.
also its entirely too difficult to find XJ winch bumpers that dont kill approach angle. Ive been able to find one of 2 in my day, but even those are either over priced, or dont have much as far as cosmetics go.
For starters We would like to start with items between say 50-350 bucks and go from there. mainly for the people who want functional, items, but dont need the bling or price tag associated with most other companies.
what would yall like
