Front bumper specs
I'm wanting to build a front bumper with the 3/4 shackles and a receiver. Anyone have any specs I could use to build one?

I want to build my own as well. I also need specs. No one has exact measurements at all? And a picture or two?

This was my original design before tweaking it some more. The mounts are 33" apart. Fender to fender is 60" I think. A total bumper width of 64" matches TJ flares exactly, so 62" would probably match up with stock flares.

Thanks for the pic and the measurements. Is there any special way for the d ring mounts? I read that you have to weld them to the bumper brackets too? But I don't know it thats right.

When Mocking a new bumper or anything for that matter, I like to use foamboard of the same thickness as the steel I plan to fab with. It helps get better measurements, and fitlment. Just my 02
