Arrow Off Road Bumpers

Im building a bumper for a friends truck and was wondering if you guys think that these would look good on our year of Dakota's?

The bumper is very similar but not exact as the picture.

Yeah it would look good on our trucks if they weren't so damn close to the ground.

Sounds good. Im selling them for $650 for materials and time. Shipping is more. The one in the picture goes for over 2 grand! lol I have a friend that is a trucker so maybe I could ship it with him part way or all the way if your still interested.

Cool thread, I have seen some good drawings and designs for rear bumpers. They seem quite easy to build. I run a steel shop so I have access to everything.

I built the bumper for a 2004 Dakota. Now I'm thinking of building one for my year of Dakota, and a rear bumper while Im at it. I think 93 has a smaller front end than the newer gen2's?
