I really like your design. I am currently scouting out new bumper ideas so when I get time and money, I can make one that doesn't have a bend upwards on the passenger side from falling in a hole.
One thing asthetically I would change would be to add a second or maybe third bar going to the edge of the vehicle, but I would cut each one shorter so as to follow the angle that you cut on the ends of the first ones.

Nice job brutha. It came out really nice. I have a reciever hitch for a GM truck. I think i'm gonna steal some of ur ideas. It would alot cheaper than buying one.
And the one I wanted was what hudfab used to build. I just need some 1 3/4 tubing.
Thanks for the inspiration broham...lol

Thanks for the idea. Im building mine just like this. But with the mounting plates extended for the eyes. Im using 1/4" plate for the mounts and 2x6 1/4 tube for the actuall bumper. Then in the long run ill extend off the pipe and start my lower exo cage there and tying into the rock sliders.
