Thanks Mad,
The first set took some time...(20 to 30 hours) makin the templates and the jug. the second set for fatboy i got like 4 to 6 hours in to them and they are all tacked..and have been fitted.they have to be put back in the jug and welded up..another 2 1/2 hours and thell be done.. i also bended up a piece of pipe for the two crazy bends....and clamp the d-plate to it and heat the crap out of it to get the bends and trim them ...that is a hell of alot faster then how i was doing it before

Can you make a pair of corner guards for a Bronco?

Evian,
I could but ... i'd have to buy a whole sheet of metal (4x8) i mite be able to get a 4x4 sheet depending on the gauge you where looking to make them out of... i believe a few vendor's make them . that would be your best bet.. by the time of buying the metal, cuting, bending it up test fitting and shipping you'd be able to buy two sets from a vendor .

the vendors only sell the guards for the rear.
Wish Wild Horses would make some for the front too!

I bend the front corners alot more often than the rear.
