Can everyone with a tube front bumper post a pic?

[blcktpgsr]

your's and the addicted one are my favorites, so just trying to plan out my options should I ever go for a front bumper.

Any gullible unsuspecting noobie might ask.......who the heck is the addicted one?!??

sorry man...Just needed a laugh today.

A couple of mine. Square tube. I need to add a hoop still.

my new addicted offroad bumper i had installed over the weekend, its a pretty sweet bumper

with my lights installed

Damn that is some serious light power!

Here is mine I made myself, with some square tube, a sawzall, grinder, and stick welder. The only thing I was concerned with when making it was maxing out the approach angle. Its held up well over the years, but I'm looking to get front bumper more pleasing to the eyes sooner or later that I trust putting a winch into...

anyone have a straight 90 degree side shot of the badlands bumper? I'm curious to see its approach angle compaired to others.

Here you go.

 

[nquaint]

awesome thanks. Looks like it has a better angle than addicted's.

 

[Hepar]

awesome thanks. Looks like it has a better angle than addicted's.

Honestly, I don't know. Addicted's bumper looks like it goes a little more straight up at an angle from where the sub-frame goes while the Badlands goes out a bit and then bends up 90 degrees. Hard to really say though without seeing them side by each.

I've seen a few of addicteds in person(I have his rear bumper). And yes his sort of go straight out on the frame, more so than badlands that angle upwards in a shorter distance.

Here is the best side shot I can find of an Addicted bumper(Duhockey's). It looks to me like it sticks out farther than a badlands bumper, I guess the winch box position is what makes it do that. Also Addicted has the hefty frame crossbar brace he welds in which may prevent him from recessing the bumper any further back.

Well, going for my license on October 4. That means I'm going to have a bumper built at school, it's going to take a while, though. Make a little progress each day then bolt the stock(Taiwanese replacement) back on every day so my dad doesn't know. And custom grille before the bumpers. =)

Here you go.

Longterm review? I still love it. But I'm probably not the best to give you the review as I've only really beaten on it a few times. I hear mixed reviews on people dealing with Jeff, but he was awesome to deal with on my end. I think most of the complaints have to do with email response time. After you meet him, I think you'll quickly figure out that he's not the type of guy who loves to be around a computer.

cool. im not too worried about that, i'll call to order, and drive to pick it up.

im interested in how it mounts, any chance you can get some detailed pics of where it actually bolts to the frame?

the site doesn't show it very well, and quite frankly is difficult to navigate.

Yep. I won't be back home until tomorrow, but I'll post some when I get back.

no worries.

when I saw you had posted here, I came expecting pics...and then was ready to place my order. lol.

 

[Hepar]

OK, here you go. Bumper is mounted by a total of 8 bolts. 2 on each outer side and 2 on each under side.
