    BUMP

    Because I am jealous of this bumper and want one! And everyone should see this and dream up some new possibilities for the front and rear. It is possible to do.....

    here she is ready for priming.


    all painted, turn signal lights in.


    license plate holder in, forgot to get picture with the hook in it.



    next i need to get a lower skid plate, then I'll start fitting the lower bumper.

    What is the rough weight?

    Looks good Orion. Are you going to add any gusseting to the rear and mount?

    I'm guessing around 50 lbs tops. i meant to weight it, I'll take it off and check.

    no gusseting needed, the mount plates are 1/2 in thick and welded thick. the receiver is welded on both sides.

    Great job! Would you tell us the length of each section is and what degree of bend you used for each?
    Peace.
