Holy hell man! You need a forklift just to mount it.

Not my style, but it looks well made and well thought out.:tu:

Thanks Joe! No forklift needed. Just the 5 ton overhead at the shop. LOL

That is a sweet bumper man!!!!:tu: The only things I would do is add more on to it. I want to make one simialer to yours when I buy my truck. If it was mine, I would make some headlight protectors to finish it out a little more, mount a 10k winch to it, and add some d ring shackles to make it all look like this:

Looks bulky but sturdy too.. cant you adjust it in such a way it could become compatible with headlights too.. it should be a little long running through the corners...

adjust which part? there really is no up/ down or side to side motion. i have 2 tabs on the bottom to put some fog lights on down the road.

looks great I personally think it needs headlight protectors a deer will still take out your headlights

well if i see the deer i'll swerve into them so i hit it head on not on the side. i did the other night. granit i was only doing about 45 but it made a good bounce.

Nice fab work! Did you use 3/16 plate? To me the best part of fabrication is building things exactly like we want them. Congrats.

i have all 3/8" plate for mounting. the main square on the front is 4' X 6" X 1/4" square tube. then the othere square tube is all 1/4" wall. the uprights are 3/8" plate with a 1/8" wrap for cosmetics. the top deck is 1/8" tread plate. and under the head lights is 1/16" tread plate. it's alot of iron in there.
