i dont like the dubjays all that much but after seeing this and the fab work youve done on it, you my friend have single handedly changed my mind. awesome fucking build keep up the great work

[lakailimited06]

tire carrier/bumper parts came in from AtoZ:

[HeavyMetal]

I wonder if it was shipped Priority Mail

[lakailimited06]

what do you guys think for the tire carrier material 1x3, 2x3, or 2x2? im going 1/8" which ever i choose i kind of like the way the taller material looks but 1x3 might be to skinny..

[lakailimited06]

mounts made with 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" x1/4", theyre going to get side mounts added on this was just temporary so i could make the bumper...also im going to add some type of bracing/reinforcements its not just going to be welded to the end of the angle:




cut cut cut:


general idea:



so far i only welded the main back piece to the brackets and its HEAVY AS SHIT...this bumper is going to weigh so much

[LittleD]

What size steel in the main pieces of the bumper? 2x6?

[Kyle]

Looks good dude, just try to make the whole thing flow and not look like some one just welded a bunch of shit together. the front came out so nice id love to see a matching rear bumper.

[creepwj]

did you end up trimming with an angle grinder?

2x6x3/16"

yea im trying, i dont know how this thing is going to look i think its going to turn out really boxy looking...

did you end up trimming with an angle grinder?

i used an air grinder with a 3" cut off disc and it worked great for everything...

[clean4drxj]

looks great so far....

[lakailimited06]

not really making great progress almost finished my receiver snapped a couple pics of my welds: ( made the chain plate its pretty much just for looks, and i know i totally forgot to weld it to the receiver lol):




im starting to lose interest in flux core...

[003brian]

yea its a long way from being finished i try and work on it after work for a couple hours but its pointless...takes 1 hour to get everything i need together, MAYBE 1-2 hours of work then like 30 mins to clean up....rather do it on saturdays....

yes i need to get a gas setup maybe for my bday...
