Cool project, where do you wheel at? Have you ever been to green swamp? I'm always looking for more places to wheel in Florida

go for it bud. just make sure the stinger is made of solid round bar and you'll have no problem with trees or slow drivers, and now when you hit a deer it goes under the jeep instead of through the windshield. sorta turns the jeep into a big meat tenderizer

no but the only thing in front of the radiator is some expanded metal to keep the tree branches out.
