JK Front Bumper Build

Postby tobyw » Fri Mar 19, 2010 4:41 pm

With regard to bumpers, I am a minimalist. More is better... I despise just about every manufactured front bumper for the JK's on the market, not to mention the gross price tag attached to them :roll: So, out came the plasma cutter, drill press, and welder 8)

I started with the winch plate from my old TJ...

And ended up with this...

Enlisted some help to install it...

And the finished product...

Yep, I've wheeled one of those, too...

That is honestly the best JK bumper I have seen to date. I credit your helper. 8-)
Okay, we're a little crazy to have a Duramax for a daily driver. But if we go off our meds, we might wind up in a Prius.

That bumper looks great........but will the police agree?

There is another thread on here about bumpers and what is required. They must be 4 and 1/2 inches high and the same width as the wheel track width.

Just sayin so your not caught off guard if the police decide to hassle you.
