this is how i want my rear bumper.

 

spent arround 9 months deciding the type of rear bumper i want.
after watching all kinds of bumpers on the net, i decided to the c-rok but the hitch is to high and the bumper is to simple.
so i want to make my own rear bumper, tire carrier, tow points and hitch.
dont decide yet were and how to bolt it to the frame, but i already started .

 

i hate cutting metal so iŽll send this and some beers to a friends shop

 

Looks like you got it all figured out.

 

Looks pretty sick man! I'm planing to take on the same task, maybe in the next year or so. I'll be tracking your progress, good luck!

 

Cutting metal is the best part! Shearing is easier...but less fun! Looks good!

 

cool man it is very easy, the hardest part was deciding wich bumper i want.
thanks

i already decide the type of brakets i want, they are going to be very similar to the c-rok.

 

continue looking fot the idial tire carrier

 

i know but the problem is my mother, she thinks iŽm gonna cut in pieces my self and she doesnt aloud me to work in her garage so i dont have another place to do that.
thanks!

 

part 1
this is the material we use to build this bumper.
the butane and oxygen cutter
a small bender (arround 30")
a welding machine
and i sent to bend the bumper(to a special shop)

here some pics of the material i used to build the bumper hope you like

 

this are the brackets i made for the bumper, tire carrier and hitch, i think they are strong enought but i dont think the unibody does.
i think iŽll add some extra support

 

part 2
well this is the piece of 1/4 i sent to bend it is really big.
and some random photos.
its almost done maybe on saturday iŽll be showing it off.

 

part 2
more pics

 

Lookin good so far! Are you tieing it in to the frame rails at all?

I wish I had access to a bender like that, they really save a lot of time.

 

thanks man
sure iŽll tie them maybe tomorrow, think iŽll use just 1 bolt per side.
i have acces to the small one but for the big fold i have to pay.
iŽll keep posting tomorrow
