Ah ok. All I'm going to be doing is making the plates for now. Not sure if I want to do 2x6 tube or what

 

Does anyone have access to bumper measurements (front or rear)? I.e. hole placements, overall width. I'd be happy to design and share the blue prints to fab one. I'll be using autodesk inventor, so angles, measurements, welds, bead count, you name I can design into it. We could even stress test it for weak points

 

Do you not have a Jeep to measure?

Been there done that.

 

Where is that bumper? Lol

 

How is autodesk inventor?
I have solidworks and it warps my mind...so much **** to learn

 

Never built it. Decided to go a different route. Still building something very similar.

 

Solidworks is more user friendly. I like Inventor better tho.

Photoshop does the same thing to me.

I need a seriously dumbed down version of PS. I can do just as good on MS Paint.

 

Ive tinkered with solidworks a bit.. but still cant get a full grasp on it.

 

That's what I figured haha

I might not build a rear now. I don't know if I like the whole rear quarter cut and fold... If I do it I will want to make sides for that

 

Cut and fold looks great, I think. (As long as you have the bumper that goes with it.)

I'll be fixing that on my trail junk as well.

It had side but my welds sucked and they broke off. lol

 

I can't use my arc welder to tac it back in place... That's part of it

 

Found this from googling the name

Don't even know what that site is, but I wouldn't do it either way.

 

So you're still planning to tuck the winch in? if that's what I'm seeing lol I really want to do mine like that.

 

FOLLOWUP:
Well, my theory was incorrect. But your solution was the right one:


...I did it wrong the first time (but, of course I followed the instructions lol), and the adjustment kind of made it worse (there was a well defined crisp feel to each shift of the transmission). I had zip for power going up a slight grade (tried it twice) during the test drive; I had to manually kick the throttle down before the end of the grade, or stay on the power curve with the throttle the entire length of the grade.

Came back home and read all the way through the thread, and somebody said "do it this way instead" ...and that did it: tranny shifted like butter, power was on the curve all the way to the top. Went to a different hill - much steeper - and same thing.

Problem solved. Best "minor" adjustment/zero cost fix evah.

Muchas gracias amigo.

 

Glad it worked for you.


(I also just realised I said *** instead of add in that quoted post lol)
