I built myself a bumper for my truck with help from pics from some of thepeople on this site. I know it's not finished yet, I still have to get some more metal to finish it up. It's all welded and I have to spend time grinding it down then paint. I plan on putting on Dupli colors bed liner later when it's warmer out.It's still a little cool and lots of rain here yet. I only have an open walled shop so it's a little damp to work in. I think it looks good, but will look better when painted.
now THATS what im talking about. i love seeing guys fab their own stuff! we need to MAKE the 3rd gen aftermarket and not wait for companies to do it for us. nice work mane! cant wait to see it done. im digging the prerunner style stinger too.
NICE, have you tried winching anything with it yet?
Not yet, it's a new motormaster { Canadian Tire brand} 8500 lb winch. I just got it mounted up Friday as I needed to drive my truck. Don't like to drive without a front bumper in case I hit something { **** happens} could be lots of fender damage, besides I think it's law here to have a front and back bumper.
Thanks for the comments. Oh ya the winch was on sale before Xmas for - - - - - - - - - - - - wait for it - - - - - - - - $ 230.00 couldn't turn it down.
Hey I just thought of something, with this bumper and winch the front end is heavyer so later on I'm thinking of putting in new struts/springs. I read on here about a brand that was stiffer than stock but I can't remember which one.
