Hello Everyone,

I just finished up my bumper for the XJ the other day and thought I would post some pics to get feedback. I used 3/16" steel plate with 1/4" for the brackets. I ran the brackets all the way up the subframe for the option of drilling a few extra holes for recovery strength. Let me know what ya think...

 

Looks pretty clean, and well camoflauged, the only part you can see is the ends!

Got any better pics of it?

I do dig the clean lines, I'm a simplistic guy sometimes. Less is more.

 

Thanks man, I live in San Francisco so, I didn't want a bunch of stuff hanging off the front because parallel parking is a pain here already Here are a couple more that might show the profile a little better.

Also, for anyone needing a bumper, I can make more!

 

 

can we see the mounts on the jeep? how many mounting points?

 

Looks alot like my JCR without D rings or receiver. I like it.

Did you use any supports or gussets inside?

 

looks really really good and clean. nice job!

 

Nice and clean looking! i like

 

Thanks guys,

Here are a couple shots of the brackets, They are full length and pick up the three mounting bolts for the steering box, there is more room for another hole even further back if you like. The passenger side is stock three holes with the room for 3 to 4 more holes if you want. My bumper does not use all of the points because it is a daily driver and doesn't make it to the dirt much

The brackets run all the way to the front plate of the bumper and tie into the front, top and lower plates. If I put recovery tabs on it I would definitely run a few gussets in the back.

 

I meant inside the bumper.

And, just a friendly heads up, if you do plan to sell these here you will need to become a supporting vendor.

If this turns into a for sale thread I will have to lock it until you become one.

 

No gussets inside the bumper, this one probably won't see much dirt. If I run recovery tabs, I will gusset the inside. The lower plate (skid plate) runs underneath and against the lower radiator support to protect it.

Thanks for the heads up on the vendor spot, this thread is to get feedback, however, I will go ahead and set up a vendor spot to make sure everything is done right if someone wants one.

 

Sweet, thanks for being cool. You don't know how often its the opposite.

 

Loving the clean and slick look of it if you ever decide to sell some please LMK i would be very interested

 

very nice! I would love to see a rear bumper and tire carrier come out that clean.

 

Looks great! Needs D-rings a stinger and a nice rear bumper n tire rack great work man!
