I find it funny that no one has an accurate bolt pattern online.

I cut these with a CNC laser so it's just easier to go off something that's close, cut it and try it. I'm just trying to find one that's close to begin with.

I'll measure for sure when I get home on my parts mobile.

Smittybilt XRC YJ/TJ stinger front bumper. Custom made brackets which are beyond simple. Aside from that and the round headlight I wonder what else i can do to be more wrangler-ish

EDIT: STUBBY. I really like the approach and the look of the front with the tires showing.

Home-brew tubular construction. 1.75" x.120" DOM mainly with 1.5 x .188" DOM stinger supports. 0.250" tie-in that run 18" back on the uni-body. (6) grade 8 bolts per side.

Will receive a "behind-the-crossmember" winch once I buy one. The fairlead will be mounted to the 1/4" plate behind the square opening.

Heres one for the ugly bumper team
First picture is what I started with (2x6 tube bumper). Its a work in progress (kinda like my xj) and it is ugly but it works.

Here's a shot of mine, it's homebuilt and not the prettiest but super beefy and does the job.

Mine is a Roxolid bumper that came on my XJ when I got it 4 bolts on each side.



How hard would it be to add more mounting bolts?

^lol, thanks bud! I bet my buddy Denny, who owns HLC Fabrications would take the bid. If you are really interested you should give him a ring. I'm sure with my truck there we could make another one.

Hell, I think the first one that's color matched looks the best.
