I fabricated my own front bar but I did cheat and used Dirt Bound's mounting side plates to save time. I used 1/4"(6mm) x 8"(200mm) + 1/4"x2" flat steel mainly because I was mounting a Warn 9000lb winch on top and I wanted both strength + good approach angle. I draw up my own design, made a templet for the side wing from cardboard and cut the steel out using 1.2mm x 5" cutoff wheels cause I had 5" angle grinder tho you could use a 4" if that's what you have
