I ordered a front bumper from Nates 4x4 and I have to say it is great.He got it to me in 7 days and it is one stout well built bumper. He knows what he is doing. When I get the money I will be ordering a rear bumper from him. I just wanted to give a shout out to Nates for a job well done.

 

Now come on... You know you can't post about getting new stuff without pics

 

I will get pics this weekend. I have to take the bumper back off and touch up my paint job.

 

Tease haha

 

I think it's in the agreement you were supposed to read when you joined.

 

I will try and go home after work and the gym tonight and take off the bumper and finish the paint job. I tried getting by with 1 coat of bedliner paint but when the sun hit it I saw some places I missed and it really needs 2 costs. I need to fix a bolt I broke putting it on also. It is my daughters jeep and the bumper is heavy. I can take it off by myself but will need her to help me put it back on.

 

 

i heard his stuff is made out of 1/8 inch and trust me that ain't that heavy bc i can pick up my 1/4 and 3/16 in winch bumper by itself

 

So is his customer service still horrible? This is the fastest I've ever heard of anyone getting something from him.

Checked out his site for the first time in a couple years, his prices have definitely gone up quite a bit.

 

I can pick up the bumper no problem but picking it up balancing it on jack stands and lining up the holes is a 2 person job. At least for me it is. My last front bumper was 1/8 inch thick steel for my XJ before my daughter got it and it worked just fine. My buddies YJ tube bumper is made out of 1/8 steel and he beats the hell out of it. This was my first dealing with Nate but I was impressed with how fast he got the bumper to me.

 

iv run both front and rear bumpers by nate, one of cl, other order from him got to me withing a week or 2 idr and my buddy also bought a rear bumper from him in about the same time, i talked to him directly and came up with the rear bumper i wanted and even when i changed my mind a day later and emailed him he got in it and responded within a day and told me he would accomodate my new design.

as for strength the front bumper i ran i got into an accident with, totalled the blazer and left nothing but a minor scratch on the bumper and no damage to the jeep and the rear iv bashed like its my job on the rocks.

kudos to a good price and a good bumper guy.

 

Oh yeah? Well I can bench press a Dana 60 and superset with dead lifting a 4.0L.

In other words, cool story bro. You must be so buff.

 

LOL

 

Ok here are some pics. Ignore the mess in my garage, I had to move some stuff around. I have 2 projects going on at the same time.

 

Its a GREAT bumper... I have the same one:
