S-10 Bumper

admin

I thought i would show off my latest project. It's a bumper that i built for my buddy's s-10. It is made from 1/8" sheet that was cut with a plasma by hand and mig welded with my miller 180. The brackets that attach to the frame are 3/8 plate and have nuts welded to them. anyway here are some pictures. sorry no in construction pics Attached Images
Reply:Wow.  The edges are positively clean.  Where the welds are, and where the slight arc is to match the wheel well."Any day above ground is a good day"http://www.farmersamm.com/
Reply:Looks great.  I might have made it a touch wider to match the fender flares.  But that is just preference.Are the tabs that are sticking out of the front the bumper for a winch?
Reply:Looks like a seriously well made and finished bumper. Those look like Bilstein dampers too, more serious stuff if they are."One of the things we have to be thankful for is that we don't get as much government as we pay for."

Reply:it took about 20 hrs over four days.The tabs on the front have a 7/8 hole for a big shackle to go through, for whatever recovery purposes he  may need.We may build a bumper for the rear but i'm headed back to school so that will be for another time.
