I knew the air tank thing would get your attention...

First off i made this Bumper/ tire swing out.



The main bumper part is air tight and it is a portable air tank. Here is my fancy dice stem cover


The second this i made was this..



I was too cheap and i still had some time to make something else so i made a hitch pin real quick.



And then while i was waiting for the paint to dry i made some rice kripsy treats!!


And the finished product


I want to know what you think about my latest projects! I have worked hard, give me some feedback people.
Thanks for looking

 

Looks good!!! But did you bolt the roof rack to the roof? I like Rice Crispy treats.

 

that rear bumper looks too thrown together, im not liking it too much

 

lol, that was a different build But yes.. The rack does bolt on the roof

 

Thanks for the honest opinion

 

Don't the bumper mount tire racks all rip out?

 

I love that you threw the rice krispy treats in there. I was expecting some thing else fabed up then that hit. Made me laugh.

 

Uh what? I dont quite get what your saying...

 

Aren't you afraid the roof rack will rip off?

 

I have made a similar air tank bumper for my YJ.

I would like to recommend that you drain it out, when using it on the road. In the unfortunate event that you are struck from behind, it might explode.

Also would recommend that you have some kind of experience in the welding of pressure vessels. Any welds should be at least two passes, one in & one over.

 

I have it like that for almost year now. Havent had any problems what so ever. I dont get why you think it would rip off??

I have a drain valve on the bottom of the tank. I dont have it pressurized regularly. I only do it while wheeling

 

I think what they meant by it ripping off is it getting snagged while wheeling. If that rack gets snagged, the thin sheet metal (Your roof) is most likely going to rip apart like a tin can, leaving you with a major leak/hole/security loop hole/whatever you want to call it.

As for your builds, I like low key bumpers on a Cherokee, but that just looks like a 2x4 hunk of steel; it needs a little bit of flash. I would have angled the bottom corners. That would also increase departure angles.

 

looks good

 

i think you did a much better job then those who are talking and have stock bumpers or who bought there ****. i'll post some pics of my bumper build when i get around to it and i'll let you all laugh at my ****ty design

 

could use some angled corners but then again its not a car show its made to work so i have to say great job
