Looks really good, nice work over the break.
On the front bumper skidplate do you have any bracing that attaches the back of the skid plate to keep it from bending when you hit something? If so you will need to.
I like it. Can the rear wheels contact the rear bumper? If so, be careful, Tommy (not mayfield, the other one) made something like that for his cherokee and the wheels contacted and it bent the f' off. Although yours looks beefier.
Looks sick taylor! i need to build a rear bumper...
Looks good man :gigem:
Looks good.
That rear bumper came out nice.
sweet headlight eyelids :flipoff3:
and nice work on the sliders, lookin good
Thanks! i have a lot more things i wanna do to it.. including beef up the front bumper skid and decice if i should keep my winch on a cradle or just put it in the bumper. Then a rear locker and throw in my HP 30 i got for nothing.
Karl the rear bumper clears the tire since i trimmed the fenders and made the bumper to that length. i put that into consideration when making it
I did the same thing with mine, the one Karl was talking about. I placed the piece of square tube even with the edge of the fender well, but that didn't work out so well, had to take it off halfway through a run. You might want to double check it.Quote:

Nice. Jeep is looking good
Looks prety solid.
Cool build - I like the bumpers, came out nice. Just one problem though, it's one of my pet peeves... you do know that there are two sides to that tube right? one side doesn't have a seam - that seam needs to go towards the inside... No amount of paint can cover that dang thing up. It's all in the details!
Maybe next time:flipoff2:
I preach that exact thing to my students every day.
I put the seam facing out just to annoy you. :flipoff2:Quote:

Yeah unfortunatley it was the second side, i realized the seam after my first cut and saif F*** it, not worth the trip to the metal store, time and money.....
