IMO, I like'd it before... but I'll have to see how it looks afterwards when its completely fabbed!

yea i kinda did too but got bored with it + i took at least 80-100lbs off the front. hopfully it turns out nice... im doin it myself so my fab/weld shills are being tested...if i do a good enough job i get to make one for my buddys truck and make some $$$ in the process..

 

[jhammel85]

I like it without the bull bar. That'll look pretty good.

i like the after idea more.. kinda like mine! lol. i like the clean front without the bar, which made me decided to not add a bar to mine

I like the driection its headed, looks way better than the before product. what was the deal with the support bars? they look like something that belonged on a basket ball hoop!

I was thinking the same thing.

Yeah that thing looked pretty heavy (lighter is always a good thing )
You going to mount a winch on it?

Yea that thing on the front was a warn winch bumper that I found in a scrap pile at a friends grandpas house, I'm goin to reuse the plate but not sure how to reattach it without making it look like it did, the 2 eyebolts on it were strong enough for me to snatch my friends jeep out of a swamp so I wanna keep that. Goin to probably finish it today, will update the pics later dudes

Your Badass bumper is my inspiration for doing this bro! I'm also cuttin my fenders like you did on the bottom front and trimming the fender for more clearance, I scrub with a 6" lift and 33's but the wheels are offset for a wrangler..

The approach angle is unreal compared to what I'm used to with the stock set up.. I gotta get bigger tires. But that bumper and trimmed fenders like that changes a lot.

Thanks for the compliments. I'm loving my bumper.. Now I just need the money for my axle swaps and winch. You gonna run a winch on yours?

yesir!!! mabey a xrc8

 

[lethal-threat-b288]

well was goin to get the materials today and do it but couldnt find what i need around where i live, calling around to find fab shops for scrap pieces

 

[ForOffRoadDriving]

thats always the case with my fab projects, i come up with my design and then 3 or 4 months later i have finally found enough of the right materials to make my design take shape in metal. good luck on the hunt!

 

[lethal-threat-b288]

Got the materials yesterday and did a little. Almost done finishing it tomorrow. Kirk seriously on the tail light guards. I'll pay for em. Shipping too
