Prototype rear bumper build
Hey guys so i wanted a rear bumper with spare tire carrier/ jerry can holder but i couldn't find anyone that made one. SO.... we decided to build our own. this bumper is going to have dual swing outs that can either hold two spare tires or one spare tire and 1 jerry can holder..
let me know what you think. we should be done with it tomorrow.

Nice piece of work! You kept the body lines nice and straight and the rack over the bed lines up nicely with the roof lines too.

dude I was so proud I put LED cubes in my stock bumper. but this is way better so what did it cost to make? and how thick is the steel? and when can we order one for 10% under cost? ok I was kidding on the 10% part

They are going to retail for 2k for the base bumper.... and they are ready to order now. they have about a 2 week lead time for them.... ill check the thickness but its way overkill on how tough they are....
