im interested in buying one. does anyone run one? how is the quality? please let me now thank you.

 

I don't personally but I've seen dozens of people say good things about his work. He's highly recommended around here

 

alright sweet his work looks good im really considering buying one of his bumpers

 

i run the recessed winch bumper, and i love it. very solid, but not too heavy, mounting is great because it ties in down the frame rail, and also helps brace the steering box.
weld quality is phenomenal and pricing was good as well.

the only thing i have to say bad is that during install a couple of the bolt hole were a tad off, nothing a file cant fix. but all in all, im happy with what i bought from him.
heres a pic of it installed, its the long version with full prerunner, d ring tabs, and light mounts.

 

I'm also very pleased with his work. definitely solid, and not too terribly heavy. I put mine on alone. I have a few buddies running his bumpers too.

 

I'm more interested in the rear bumper with tire carrier. i mailed him hopefully he will get back to me soon.

 

I run both front and rear nates4x4 bumpers, I love them, I don't have pics of the rear though, i ran his bumpers on an olderxj of mine as well, shipping can take a bit, but I would definatey go with him again

 

I run both bumpers and they are solid. Only problem i had wasnthat the bolt holes on the rear were a bit off so i had to bore them out with a drill.great bumpers though.

 

how long does the hipping take? ive heard that it takes a while for him to fill his orders?

 

Mine only took a week. It just depends. Call him and ask. He can probably give you a fair estimate

 

I recall seeing a "newer" version of this bumper that I think he does. Can anyone concur?

I'm interested in Nate's offerings as well. Keep the pics coming

 

just got my rear bumper from nates. really impressed with the build quality. just finished painting it, waiting for it to dry so i can install it

 

Will he actually answer phone calls/emails now?

He's always built a great bumper, but for years his customer service was god awful since it was just him.

 

He will answer if he is there and able, but don't expect him to call back.

 

I have nates front and rear, great products and his customer service has increased a lot recently
