Bumper looks beefy. How much does it weigh?

 

Thanks! This is probably one thing I debated with myself the most over. I literally could not find one that I loved. I really wanted a quarter fold tire carrier, but no one made one that I was willing to buy. AJ's is nice, but not what I wanted. Ultimately took a bit of a gamble on this one since there aren't many shots of it out there. The price I paid was too good to pass up as well. Ultimately, I'll probably sell this one sometime down the line. I plan on working with Cavfab on designing exactly the bumper I have in mind whenever he finishes the new products he is working on.

It's definitely beefy, but surprisingly not quite as heavy as it looks. I'll try to get a weight for it.

 

Painted and put together the BWE shackles. Used the same paint I used on the axle. I'm loving this stuff. It's tough to capture the color and texture, but this first photo does a decent job.

i have a deoutrs tail bone but the swing out arm move around to much for my tastes

 

Love that thing. That was actually my original plan before I went full potato lol. And I'll keep you in mind when the time comes. Could probably throw on a pallet and ship via fastenal fairly cheaply. The bumper also came with lower quarter panel armor plates as well. Overall, I'm very happy with it. I'm just hoping I still love it once it's mounted.

 

Interested to see how much flex those ends add

 

Is that the "brilliant metal finish" metallic rustoleum??

 

Me too. Not a ton of testimonies out there, but from everyone I've talked to they all love them.

That's a good one too, but this is Rustoleum Flat Soft Iron

 

Thats a good looking color. Definitely digging those shackles.

Most of my suspension/steering/3-link is going to be finished in the brilliant metal finish.

 

I was going to do that too. Actually already painted my gas tank skid that color. Same as the Cavfab paint right? I think I may even paint the arms in this color now lol

 

Yeah its the same paint cav fab uses.

Deciding on what color im going to paint the axles. Ill probably just go with black and be boring. Lol

 

Is it 5,5 RE lift on 35s?

 

Can't go wrong with black. Always looks good.

Yes sir, exactly what it is in those photos

 

I know most people swap in ZJ seats. Any other recommendations? I really want to get rid of my 2 front seats. I'll most likely leave the rear leather bench though.

 

If you weld you can fab up conversion brackets pretty easily for nearly any bucket seat.

I plan on taking some measurements of the stock seats and then go walk around the pick a part yard for a while to see if I find any candidates.
