  • This bumper was made entirely of steel that was in the remnants section at my local metal yard. I only had to pay by the pound so I'm in this bumper about 80 Bucks!!! Join me as I show you how to build a bumper with common metal working tools!

    Bad ass bumper!! Should be plenty strong. As for thinking the frame of the truck being weaker, I never drove my Wagoneer off road, but I have pulled trees down, pulled stumps out of the ground, pulled cars and trucks sideways down the road in a fit of rage, pushed people out of the way driving forward and backward, drove through 2 feet of snow, and pulled the foundation of a house back into place. I did all this while still in the city. What you built and attached to the frame of that truck should do OK, LOL. No worries.

  • @dandahermitseals5582
    @dandahermitseals5582 Рік тому +1

    This method is a total match with my thinkin. Looks great. Meets my structural integrity and build logic. I think the shackle should be a continuation of the frame attach plates in all of them. Just welding to the plate is very suspect. Dandahermit.

    LOL, i have three JEEP units myself, a 1976 J20 49K Orig., miles unit, love that beefy 3/4T rig.
    A 79 Wagoneer 108K Orig miles, that is a barn find the capsule Very nice unit.
    Can’t get over how much room these things have inside.
    Then a cherry condition, Garage find / Bam find 78 J10, 88K Orig., miles. .
    That one is a sight to behold how virgin like condition it is inside and put front to rear!
    It sat for 5 years in a garage, once it was trucked to Idaho from South Calif., and didn’t get started for years and when I bought it was the first time outside in 5 years..
    All three unto are ZERO Rust condition, rare for jeeps yet some reason God must have smiled upon my life and blessed me with these museum pieces it seems.
    Anyway brag brag brag etc.
    I think a few more will help me settle out some.

I hope you turn your tv off when they bombard you with crap music n write to the president n make it know you hate some music....etc etc...;) it could be worse it could be constant n it's tastefully done you get plenty explanation n chit chat with no music..... basicly if you don't like it make your own videos.

    Looks awesome man. I enjoy your fabrication process which is take an idea and make it work one step at a time. Sometimes I feel people over complicate it. Makes me feel more confident to just try it and work it until it’s right, if that makes sense.

    it looks great. i’m not being critical but you might want to invest in a new pair of gloves. i have old underwear that have less holes than those green things you call gloves

    It came out awesome bud 😎 it's definitely a badass bumper it fits perfectly. My opinion you should clear coat it just the way it looks great finish with the grinder.

      Thanks bro! Alot of people are suggesting a clear coat paint job. I like the idea but I haven't ironed out a plan for cover yet
