Sweet! Id definetlely buy one if you made some. Good alternative to paying hundreds of dollars for a bumper that can even fit a tire carrier on it then you gotta buy the carrier lol

I went wheeling. Say a Suburu Outback with snorkel try a mud hole that was thick and slick. Funny as hell. Gave him props for trying though.
Here's a video of it.

I like it and planned on building one myself. Instead of using blocks, why not use a grade 8 bolt? Put one on the back side to keep it from going back too far, and one on the front to limit the drop

New plugs, wires, cap, rotor, ignition coil, air filter, cts, rear shoes, and fuel filter. Now if I could only figure out why it bogs down and wants to die when I give it gas. I replaced the iac and tps with new and swapped a map sensor from my room mates xj, but nothing worked. Think I'm going to have to pull the fuel pump tomorrow since I'm out of ideas.

Replaced the old cork gasket with a rubber coated aluminum gasket. Next is the oil pan gasket.

Im gonna take some plate and weld it to the plate so that it folds down 90* or possibly a little more. Then add a little on the back so it cant hit the jeep, even though mine is set up to hit the rear wiper, could use a bolt but drill bits are expensive haha
