I've been telling him the same thing for a while now

 

Its true. And trust me I want to.

 

I'm pretty sure Matt Parker would be more than happy to let you weld at his place, Mike. Figure between him, you , and me we could get you a pretty simple bumper done in a few hours to be honest. Figure cost would be the steel and a 12 pack of Bud Light for the use of his welder.

 

I guess I should start looking at designs.

 

I have 96 down front bumpers

 

Look at mine in my sig. Very easy to make. And strong too.

 

Was wondering when you'd chime in. But you're right. Very simple design, strong as crap, good looking.

 

If anybody hits up pick and pull anytime soon keep an eye out for the 97 up electric fan, I need to get a new one and making that drive just ain't worth it to find out the only xjs with it have front end damage.

 

I'm heading there next weekend. I'll see what I can find for you.

 

lol yeah been busy man. hows them gears holding up?

 

great. I still need to replace my rear driveshaft u-joints though. Need to do that before next months trip.

 

Thanks Matt, I'd greatly appreciate it.

 

Come on by if ya need help.

 

I may swing over in a couple weeks. I don't have a vice yet and they make drive shaft joints so much easier.

 

That's no problem man. whenever just text me or something. Don't have to being beer since your doing the work lol.
