Finally finished my new rear tube bumper!

[DPI]

After a couple weeks of work, it's done. Now I just need to make me a front bumper and my stinger for the removable winch. /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif

You do real nice work. Always enjoy seeing the pics of the bumpers and other stuff you build.

VERY . BTW, I have never figured it out. What is the purpose of the stinger type front bumpers?

 

[TorkDSR]

keep the short wheelbase stuff from rolling forward.

or out east guys (read BOSS) use them to glance of trees when their hydro fails /forums/images/graemlins/rotfl.gif

My stingers are designed to protect the radiator in a roll over... However, most stingers are made to just look cool and maybe hold some lights. /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif

I re-read my post. The stinger I am talking about is for the receiver mounted winch. Not the stinger (brush guard type) mounted on the front bumper.

Very nice work /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif Do you use a program to get the bends right, or have you been using a tube bender for a long time to beable to do that? /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

looks good /forums/images/graemlins/peace.gif I need something like that for my sub. the part where it covers the rear overhang does it come back and mount to the frame???

Yep, there is a tube that runs from the side bar back to the bumper mounting plate.

No program is used. Although I hear Bend-Tech is good. I mainly use an angle finder and a measuring tape.

 

[84gmcjimmy]

Wow. You must be good with angles and stuff then. Once again, nice work.

Well, I wish I paid more attention in Geometry! /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif
