JCROffroad diy bumper arrived.

The tale of SuperMJ-photo191.jpg

It was really easy to have everything bent up. Literally so easy. Had everything bent up within 15 mins. I had everything except for the mounts welded up last night. Sorry no picture of that stage yet.

I also had the backing plates painted. I decided I ll stick with drum brakes this time. I don't feel like sourcing the disc stuff and consuming my time when I barely have any. Maybe one day in future I will do that.

And beside. Drum brakes are stronger than disc anyway.

Looking good Neal. Looking at those drum brake backing plates reminds me I have to rebuild mine. They look a bit barnacle’d.

I really like the beige. Don't let them make fun of your beigefriend like that
