I probably didn't need a new front bumper, but Fab Fours has a hell of a deal going on now so I couldn't resist.:043:

Thanks man, I was really thinking about building one. I guess I got lazy. This thing looks really good and is REALLY stout. I wasn't sure about the stinger but it is growing on me for sure.

i kinda think the stinger is bent too much...it looks like its at least 170-175°

some days i look at them and like it and some i dont...but it does look good

If you continue the line down the stinger to the floor that line would touch the ground right in front of where the tire toutches the ground. maybe an inch or inch and a half in front of the tire. I'm pretty sure that I have read thats where you want it to be.

That is sick Jeff, If I had a TJ that would be what i'm running. I like there fullsize truck bumpers, and your bumper is good lookin right there. Better remember what that thing looks like now, cuz i'm sure from how much wheeling you do it ain't never gonna be that nice and shiny ever again haha

Thanks Jeff, perfect view. Nice deer slinger :) Seeing it on your Jeep really makes me wish I had $, cause I'd scarf one of those up in a minute. Do you mind me asking, how much did it cost in the end to ship to your door? or did you pick it up through Meridian? Don't feel obligated to answer that, I won't be offended.

I got it through work. shipping is around $100. We do have one more of these at the shop though. you can call the shop to get an exact price if any one is interested.

Looks good Jeff. Maybe throw a tube or two on there to support it a bit. When you get over it being new of course :D. It should protect the jeep good incase of a roll over.

Looks good.

I thought about adding a hood hoop and running some braces from is down to the stinger. but I have to atleast get it dirty first.:043:

i keep forgetting you have the tube shark too, so adding a hood hoop to your heep should take about 15 minutes! lol!

It usually takes longer to key it into bendtech than actueally bend the tube. I am definitly still learning. bend tech can be a little confusing at times. I can usually picture what I want in my head. the hard part for me is to get the little picture on bend tech to look the same as the picture it my head lol. I think that sometimes it is easier to just bend it up and leave yourself some excess tube on the ends. You cant always do that though. like I said I am still learning.



EDIT: Happy TOM????????
