thoughts on this bumper?

[mud_bogger]

Made it a few years back to put on a jeep cherokee but never got around to making the mounts.

Think it would look decent on there? planning on weldin a coulple of D-ring tabs an paintin it black.

Oh yea, its stout

Do it. My brother found a company that makes bumpers just like that one for EBs. They are pretty beefy and look good IMO.

 

[haymaker]

that would look perfect

 

[metalmacguyver]

I like it. Do it.

looks familiar

i used to live in butte falls,where do you go wheeling out there?

 

[mud_bogger]

I ussually go in between buttefalls and hiway 140. Or I go to lakecreek. I gotta get my winch mounted before I hit that red gumbo in buttefalls though. you know how that stuff is

i still have friends there it would be fun to visit.one thing you might do is sink the reciever so you put the pin in from behind the bumper,so your bumper doesn't drag as much.

Could just turn the bumper around seeing as how its symetrical. I second that idea as well.

the distance from the pin hole to the end of the tube would be too long you'd need to sink the 2" square stock.
i don't know if its boxed in yet but that would be pretty heavy.mines just c-channel and even that is stronger than ranger frame rails.
not good for the frame in a wreck but if you have a winch you can't have the bumper moving around on the truck.

 

[mud_bogger]

Think I'm goona leave the hitch where its at. It looks worse in the pic than it really is.

What do you mean by "boxed in"?

 

[rickcdewitt]

What do you mean by "boxed in"?

is it made from c channel or rectangular tube stock?open towards the front of the truck not closed in on all sides.either way i'de run it its just a little heavier boxed in
