difference between jeep and b2 bumper

[chrwilkins30]

I want to build a tube bumper but don't have the equipment. Found one of CL and he says its for a jeep wrangler. what is the difference between the width of the front end. The guy wants 225 and is about a hour away. I offered him 150, so we will see what he says. Here is a pic of the bumper.

This is a good bolt on (weld on too). You really need a bl to use this tho. You will need to cut off your bumper brackets (the ugliest brackets in the world) and you can drill bolt holes to mount it or you can weld it in place and bolt it for better strength!!!! Good choice for a bumper.

I thought I had a few photos of the bumper mounted on an Exploder but it is not in my photo site. Here is the link to show you what it looks like on an Exploder. I was gong to do the same thing some time back but I had a bumper made for me that I still have not mounted!!

I see them once in awhile on Ebay for the same price with free shipping. It is the shipping cost that sometimes cost a bunch!!!

okay, good finding out the original price. the only thing is that it comes with look to be new kc lights. if hes going to complain he can have the lights. i already have some now from good old HF.

well called the guy today since i never received a email and he will take 150 if i came today, but of course the worst thing could happen and my mom got rear ended while waiting at a light by a chevy 2500HD and totaled her Saturn.so buying things for the bronco will go on hold. So hopefully in a few weeks he will still have it and Ill buy it. thanks for all the help guys.
