Thanks! I bought it for $500 and wanted to make a low budget exploring/camping truck. I have had hardcore Wranglers in the past for rock crawling. It has been a fun project and has been fun to travel and camp with my kids.
Excellent. Your one hell of a fabricator. I just found your You Tube Channel been watching everyone of your videos on this Jeep WJ. I have a 99 WJ myself.
4 flute is more of a chaser tap Found to have really good luck with skip tooth taps as well. Remember the coatings on the taps as well. That 4 flute had no coat That 3 flute had that black coating
The davinci of fabrication, I'm sitting here watching all of your WJ videos and wondering what I can do to my 04 Larado. Now if I can just get that tree out back to start sprouting..... thanks for all the uploads and ideas! As a weekend camper I will do the window doors for sure!
The rear quarter guards look great, I like how you tied them into the rear tire rack. Also, maybe its personal preference, but I always countersink/debur before tapping the hole and to not roll the bur into the threads.
@@SpiralDesignWorks That is truelly a shame, i would love to have them on my WJ. Even your badges looks so good i really believe you would have sold them easy. Well well hoping for a vid atleast then
Do you have a video where you cover how you figured out or marked the cut line for where the tube meets the existing bumper? I just got myself a tube bender and my first project is adding a prerunner bar to my xj bumper, and I know that will be a compound angle cut since I want it to stick out from the bumper like yours and not be vertical 90*
I sometimes use a pipe marking tool like this amzn.to/3ctMu2D or just hold it up at the angle you want, mark it long and cut it. leave room to cut it back more to make it perfect. You can always take more off...adding it back it a bit harder. Good luck with your project.
@@SpiralDesignWorks no worries Not telling you how to skin that cat. Just throwing it out there. Maybe you did and I just didn't notice. But I do recommend: skip tooth taps Castro Moly-Dee tapping oil for any steels 12 year CNC mill operator, Boss paid for those experiences.
Outstanding work! Liked it so much had to go through your channel and watch the rest of that bumper build. Quick question for you, what pipe sander were you using to clean off the mill scale off the tubing?
Hey Man Great Job 👌👏I Like Jeep 🚙 My Jeep Grand Cherokee Orvis Edition V 8 5,2 1995 Original 👍 👍 👍 Best Regards /Baghdad Afternoon Jan 10 /Duraid 😎🚙💝👍👌👏
Great videos! I have a question, I want to swap the 4.7 to 5.3 vortec. Whats your opinion on that, & where would be a good place to get the wiring harness?
Awesome job, the whole time im watching the drill turning I noticed it was turning the wrong direction... But might just be the camera or my eyes...Nice Job. I did the same build On my 2005 Grand Cherokee.... 10k winch, put a SmittyBuilt CRC custom fit myself. First pull was a 28ft trailer out of a ditch... Subscribing now Share pics and stories...
I spent a lot of time designing this bumper, many prototypes and wood templates to get it really tight and nice. Thank you for watching. Don't forget to subscribe at hit that notification bell for future video releases.
Love the front bumper, it’s super sexy. I got a summer project coming up for my WJ. Was looking into getting that same bumper, but it’s been out of stock forever. Do you have any expectations to bring it back?
Unfortunately I spent 90% of my time designing things for Navy contractors. So my play time for cool stuff is very limited. We may take in some custom work next fall after I get about 80 of my ADHD projects finished.
Correct that is a transfer punch did I say something different? From Wikipedia: A D-ring is an item of hardware, usually a tie-down metal ring shaped like the letter D used primarily as a lashing point. What do you call them?
My work is: the installation of the micro-motorcycle plant .... This car is appropriate for practice ... If you give it to me ... I will not say ..... no
You would...ha. You are the second person to use the word "Ropey" to describe the music. I have never heard that word used like that before. I will have to watch the video to see which one you are talking about to be sure to use it again.
I normally hate those WJ, however your vision and skills into enhancing this thing are amazing to the
point of making me love it

@@SpiralDesignWorks Indeed, This level of skills doesn't come out of nowhere. Thanks for an awesome content
WJ is best looking jeep
Excellent. Your one hell of a fabricator. I just found your You Tube Channel been watching everyone of your videos on this Jeep WJ. I have a 99 WJ myself.
Wow, thanks!
Great work of art. I really enjoy the way this looks. Thank you for sharing with us!
Thank you!
Excellent work. I like how you tapped the bumper to attach the bar.
I should have chamfered the hole before tapping. I was slacking.
Super SUPER clean work man. WJ's badass.
Thank you.
Truck is looking good bro

Pretty rad work you do there. I wish I was as handy with my powertig welder
Some day my wj will look this nice
one part at a time. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for sharing this prpject... great job
Thanks for watching. Don't forget guys to subscribe and hit the bell! Trying to hit 10k subs this month.
Sick bumper man like the whole jeep actually people dont really tend to build this generation of wj either which makes it more unique
That is such a balling WJ! Love it!
Thank You!

Remember the coatings on the taps as well.
That 4 flute had no coat
That 3 flute had that black coating
This is super rad. I need to learn how to tig and pick up some fab tools. Subscribed!
TIG is my favorite for sure. NO flying sparks, super clean welds.
Got dang I want one of these bumpers for my Dakota!

Thanks Ted. Yes countersinking the hole first would be correct order.
Really like the bumper. Sadly way to expensive to get winch mounts etc here.
Looks so sweet! Still waiting for that update with the Jeep badges :D
I might do a video of it but we decided against making them for sale due to copyright issues.
@@SpiralDesignWorks That is truelly a shame, i would love to have them on my WJ. Even your badges looks so good i really believe you would have sold them easy. Well well hoping for a vid atleast then
Thanks. But in another business I have we got like 6 cease and desist letters and big companies are not to fun to deal with.
Good work tho
Loving this series
Keep up the good work
Glad you enjoy it!

Wow wow wow!!!! Put me down on your list for purchase. I want on like yesterday brother!!! Oh yea put me down for a rear axle skid plate too!!!
Nice bar when is it available on the site
I will probably offer it as an add on to the DIY kit we will be relaunching in March.
The count. I thought I was the only one that quoted sesame street while working
You should do an ax15 swap
Good evening, im from Philippines, can you give the measurement of WJ JEEP BUMPER
great fabn
Thank you!
Hello. How to get a complete drawing? Write thank you.
Hey boss
Chamfer the hole before your tap
And tapping oil is your friend
I think I did both of those, I usually do but who knows. Thanks for watching.
@@SpiralDesignWorks no worries
Not telling you how to skin that cat.
Just throwing it out there.
Maybe you did and I just didn't notice.
But I do recommend: skip tooth taps
Castro Moly-Dee tapping oil for any steels

Man those headlights are awesome any links to them ?. If they're for the Wk2, how did you get them to fit ?
2011-13 Grand. Lots of grill, fender mods and custom bumper. I talk about it in the front bumper video and the fender videos.
Then from there a tdi swap would be very cool
That would be cool
Outstanding work! Liked it so much had to go through your channel and watch the rest of that bumper build. Quick question for you, what pipe sander were you using to clean off the mill scale off the tubing?
Thank you. It is a ebay version of the $1000 Festo version. Works great.
@@SpiralDesignWorks sweet thanks, and keep up the good work.
What size tube did you use for the main bar?
1.5" x .120" wall DOM. Same as the rear tire carrier and tree bars.

raining much?
How much the front bumper?
Great videos! I have a question, I want to swap the 4.7 to 5.3 vortec. Whats your opinion on that, & where would be a good place to get the wiring harness?
There are tons of options for the LS motor. Motorcraft, Holley, Jegs all have stand alone harnesses. good luck.
How much does the bumper weigh?
no idea. It is all 1/4" thick so probably a bit more than the plastic bumper cover it replaced.
Where you buy your lights?
taillights : amzn.to/2uuwNGB
headlights (2011-13 grand cherokee) will not fit your WJ without mods :amzn.to/36wxcGl
What i need to do for fit?
Alguna forma de comprar los planos de fabricación del bumper del jeep wj ya que soy de chile
Sorry I am not offering drawings at this time.
Awesome job, the whole time im watching the drill turning I noticed it was turning the wrong direction... But might just be the camera or my eyes...Nice Job.

Maybe the slow mo looks backwards? idk. Thanks for watching.
Whats the name of the song from 6 minutes to 7:20 secs
I will have to go dig. All the music is from copyright free music supplied by UA-cam.
Damn the design looks great. I hate when aftermarket bumpers look too bulky and don’t look like my fit

Love the front bumper, it’s super sexy. I got a summer project coming up for my WJ. Was looking into getting that same bumper, but it’s been out of stock forever. Do you have any expectations to bring it back?
hoping to have updated version back in the next few months.
I do powder coating. If anyone needs anything powder coated
how did u do the emblems on the truck
We made them out of acrylic and vinyl stickers with double sided tape.
@@SpiralDesignWorks do you guys have a video on how to do that
Do you make those bumpers for sale? How much would one cost. I have a 04 grand cherokee
Hopefully I will have a DIY kit available again soon. We sold out of the first run. www.echelondesignworks.com
When are you going to start selling this bumper??
I’d rather not buy the TrailReady one
I made a run of them last fall and will do another batch in the next few months. You can check it out at www.echelondesignworks.com
why o why didn't you powdercoat the shackles! :-) another great vid!
yes they need them bad. maybe this weekend I'll get to it.
HELLO! where i cant find the headlights, please!
amzn.to/2FSswPt but with lots of mods to fenders, bumper, mounts etc. Check my bumper and fender videos.
@@SpiralDesignWorks Did you recorded how y make the headlights?
Bruh you are a fucking beast!!!!!! I love your work do you do custom work for any jeep?
Unfortunately I spent 90% of my time designing things for Navy contractors. So my play time for cool stuff is very limited. We may take in some custom work next fall after I get about 80 of my ADHD projects finished.
Classroom workshop and equipment.
I've been collecting my tools for 25 years now. Even the Hi-lift jack on my Wj was the first piece of recovery equipment I bought when I was like 17.

А можете подсказать модель для land cruiser 105???
Sweet ass bumper
Thanks! check out the build here-ua-cam.com/video/CUrRb9ZuObw/v-deo.html
👍💪💪💪
👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪👍👍👍👍
That is a transfer punch and those are shackles not D rings
Correct that is a transfer punch did I say something different? From Wikipedia: A D-ring is an item of hardware, usually a tie-down metal ring shaped like the letter D used primarily as a lashing point. What do you call them?
From the seller themselves describing them as D-rings. amzn.to/2FwHPNI
Why don’t people treat the threaded holes before fixing components on. First bit of water and you’re gonna get rust issues,!!
I agree. I think in the video you can see me applying sealant to the holes and the bolts to seal them up.
My work is: the installation of the micro-motorcycle plant .... This car is appropriate for practice ... If you give it to me ... I will not say ..... no
ME: huh?
Love the 90's ropey porn music😻
You would...ha. You are the second person to use the word "Ropey" to describe the music. I have never heard that word used like that before. I will have to watch the video to see which one you are talking about to be sure to use it again.
