It looks like the one that I'm building. There's plans floating around on the internet for it in Google Sketchup...

Well, I'm not building the bumper with plastic...

IIRC, I'm somewhere around ~$130 in steel. I bought a 48"x40" sheet of 3/16" to begin with, and then later bought the 1/4" for the mounting plates. After I get the bolts I should be close to $150. Oh, and add a long time with a plasma cutter, and forever and a year grinding down the metal since I'm like a monkey with a plasma cutter...

I could take a pic of the cut up steel in the back of my ZJ if you want.


I went through a several month stretch where I was going to sell the ZJ, but now not so much so. I've got some time off coming up soon, I'm gonna try and get it welded up then.
