I can't wait, its gonna be friggen fun. I'd like to see if I could a rear bumper before than to get at least get a tow point for the rear. What size steel did you make your rear bumper out of? Maybe I'll take a stab at building one since I can weld now. Do you have a drawing or sketch of how did yours? I've seen a few ideas for bumpers.

I bought all four on JCWhitney for I think $65 with shipping and handling. First thing I did to the Jeep. I love them! Probably the best $65 I've spent.

They are definitly worth it. They work amazing, espescially when its raining and warm those help to cool down the jeep tremendously.

Finally got the gutter mounts on the jeep. Just need to make a couple mods to the rack to bolt it on. Then paint.
