Bumper

admin

I was rear ended and it folded up the factory step bumper.  Instead of waiting for the insurance company,  I built my own.  My father taught me this a long time ago.  Bumper was wire wheeled and brushed on 2 coats of napa's best primer 3 months ago.David Attached ImagesReal world weldin.  When I grow up I want to be a tig weldor.
Reply:Hey you did a great job on the bumper. I imagine the rear bumper on my old ford PU is about the same as the original was on your rig there. Mostly tacks with silicon beads  . Good solid job.
Reply:That looks good, I was working on a bumper myself this weekend.  How did you get the bends on the ends?
Reply:I cut noches in the flanges and heat it with a rosebud.  A big crescent wrench helps.  It also helps if you start in the center of a 10' piece.  2 bumpers from a length.Real world weldin.  When I grow up I want to be a tig weldor.
