that bumper is pretty darm cool the only thing that I would have done different would to have made it a bit longer and taperd out twoards the ends so it kind of wraps around the fender. But other that that it is a very nice job

thats the point of the receiver in the center lol, i use one of those hitch clevis things in it.
and this new bumper gives me awesome aproach angles on the front tires since it didnt go all the way out to the end of the fender so i can climb rock and walls and what not


thanks guys

right now im saving up to get a winch and a reciver mount for it, so it will go in the back and of the jeep and when i need it i can pull it out and use it in the front or back hitch. i dont like the idea of leaving a winch in the front outside.
