Custom Bumpers

does anyone make a set of plans or an unwelded kit for a front or rear grand bumper? seems like a great idea and ive never heard of anyone doing it. save on cash and easier to ship peices.

i think iron scorpion does, but not sure if he has his zj ones out yet?

Chip (Iron Scorpion) just does them for XJ's so far. I've emailed him before about doing a ZJ at some point, would like to see one for our rigs. We helped ColoradoXJ weld up his XJ bumper and I really like the basic design.

i checked out the iron scorpion site, looks like all xj stuff to me too. oh well, guess i just have to do it myself. has anyone here ever blue printed a bumper while they were building it?

I have my bumper plans in 3D format with dimensions. I might be persuaded...

i have a cardboard one made now, thanks anyways though. if you want to send it to and some inspration to what i have allready, that would be cool. im going to post up my dimentions and maybe some fab and install pics or something.

You can look at my earlier thread for what not to do.

This weekend i am going to settle on a final design no matter what.

Biggest issue is how work around the small curves and pieces of metal that are under the plastic cover, or cut them away. For a brick it sure is not all straight lines.

very cool thats for the dimentions, you have pics of the finished product? by the looks of your drawing, my bumpers going to be alittle more boxy, the front face with the fairlead doesnt taper down like yours. but other than that its very simaler.

ok i see. my lower middle peice will go to the front cross member for a skid plate, going to cut holes in it to match the grill, kinda like the stock cover was
