A Buddy of mine builds bumpers & he built it for me. My metal working skills are not at that level (yet). ;D

He mostly makes bumpers for full size trucks but he can fab up most anything. Here is his web page.

Nice ... it's always good to see something original like that . Sweet looking paint on there too ! is it powder coated or what ?

 

[Dusty]

I like it. I like that he took the extra time to put that little bend on the end of the upper stringers. I like the triangulation of them too. Nice work.

Always nice to have good freinds, it really looks cool, more important it looks real solid.

Nice work!!

What type of bender does he use?

 

[mgweiss]

Couldn't tell from your pics, but how do the front bars run to the floor? I noticed that your glove box still opens just fine.

Do you have a pic of the cage with a side view? It looks awesome so far...

 

[Jimmyjames]

Thanks guys.

The cage and bumper are not powder coated. He just shot them with a paint gun.

I don't know the name of the bender he has (I can find out). But it is a heavy duty hydro ram that you work with a foot pedal.

It is a six point cage and it is tied into the body mounts. I think I now have a 3/8" body lift.

It does interfere with the glove box, the door is off for now will have to mod it to slide over.

I don't have any side shots on the web but could email you one. Just send me a message. The hard top will go back on.

Looks good , but I'd like to see a side view of the cage too.

 

[Jimmyjames]
