So I am in the process of building a front bumper. And I was going to do the fit up and I noticed that the unibody brackets are off centered for the rest of the body. Like an inch or so. I have a 96 sport. I was wondering if they are all like that because I have enough material to make a second one and I want to sell it but if they aren't all off I would hate to have that problem. Thanks for the help.

 

me and my girl just got done fixing her up a custom front bumper, im going to make one for my jeep as well. anyhow i noticed that when we were bolting it on tonight (her jeep is a 95) that the mounts are slightly off like you said.....i havent looked at mine ( 2000 cherokee) but im assuming there all pretty much the same.

 

Ya I hope so. Kinda makes me curious on why they made them off centered. This is the one thing I don't understand

 

When building a bumper... Do you build the brackets and front off centered a bit and then build the sides to make it look centered? On side longer than the other??

 

I've built two front bumpers, one for an 88 and the other for an 87. I did not have to accomodate for any offset. Maybe the earlier years did not have it?

 

Hmmm. When did jeep go German? Cause I thought jeep was American and then Germany bought it. They could of messed it up?

 

if some are offset and some not how can bumper builders make one that fits all?

 

build one without mounts intill someone offers to buy it then look at there jeep? lol idk . . . maybe make mounts that can be movable...with four spots to bolt them on...two centered and two offset?

 

found these dont see no offset...

 

Where did you locate those? That is our "frame" dims?

 

Most likely your jeep has been hit in the front end

 

if i tell ya you gotta buy me lunch...lol... google you can find any thing just gotta word it right

 

buy the man a drink

 

Hmmm. It does has some front plastic damage. But I wouldn't think it would move the unibody off that much but keep it straight still. I'm so confused

 

Sure you weren't drinkin when you made that bumper?
