The taillight box pic, I remember it.

That bumper is gorgeous! A real work of art!

 

Check out my build thread here:https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f2/cos...rogress-12020/

I did not even use the eight bolt in the rear section, behind the bumper. I have used the bumper in numerous extractions with no issue what so ever. I plan on adding a spare tire hi-lift mount in the future, and will add the plates then, just for peace of mind, really. HTH!!

My bad, here is the rest of the build, I forgot there were two threads!! It took awhile, sorry!!

Very clean, thank you for the picture!

 

No problem and thanks for the compliments! If i had the steel id most likely fab up another couple matching sets.

 

got any more pics of it and how it was made?, did you use a 2x2 to connect the the 1/4" plate and then into the 2x4? also whats the main outside made out of, is a a 2x4 c channel or 2x5?, this is such a nice bumper

 

Thats all the build pics i have, my old computer crashed and i lost basically everything. The bumper is made from 5 1/2" wide fork lift fork extenders, its 5/16" thick. I used 1/4" thick 2"x2" between the bumper and bracket. The factory 4 bolt hole bracket is an actually piece of the fork lift extender and the 2"x4" is some 1/8" i had laying around.

 

i was pretty close on that, thanks man, i do love this bumper

 

dont mean to hi jack ur thread, but does any one have a drawing of what a home-made front bumper bracket looks like with dimensions. i kept seeing it some where round here and now that i need to now cuz im guna b making a front bumper for my xj as a school project pretty soon, Thanks
