CJ7 bumper

admin

I built this stand alone bumper for a CJ7, the massive winch bolts to the frame through the bumper, and sits ontop in its included cradle. The owner didn't like the look of flat bumpers or the smittybuilt super tall wing style....so I met it in between Attached Images'14 HTP invertig 221Thermal Arc 201ts'15 HTP 2400'13 Hypertherm Powermax 30Esab 875Esab 251Clark Metal Servicespecializing in stainless steel exhaust systems
Reply:more build. its all from 3/16 plate, and 1/4 plate where it mounts. He wanted it to be tough, and weight didn't matter much considering the winch alone weights over 140lbs. bumper came in under 65lbs Attached Images'14 HTP invertig 221Thermal Arc 201ts'15 HTP 2400'13 Hypertherm Powermax 30Esab 875Esab 251Clark Metal Servicespecializing in stainless steel exhaust systems

Reply:would love to get a 4-6ft press brake and plasma table in the future    I don't really like building bumpers because they are more work then they are worth. BUT, I do enjoy building them, and like the satisfaction when they are done. Seems like they are what everyone wants from me.'14 HTP invertig 221Thermal Arc 201ts'15 HTP 2400'13 Hypertherm Powermax 30Esab 875Esab 251Clark Metal Servicespecializing in stainless steel exhaust systems
