home made pre-runner bars
Got all the materials and ready to build my own pre-runner bars. Any body got any pix of your home-made ones?

what style are you thinking about making? Just the bars for lights and stuff, or are you making a whole bumper?

I'm keeping the factory bumper and adding the brackets to the 4 bolts that hold the bumper on and building up from there.

OK. I have my home made pre-runner bars installed. Final coating I used some of the spray-in bed liner in the spray can. Trying to keep a tough finish on them. Pictures are in gallery. See what you think. Comments good or bad. I like them.

No problem I was just looking for pre-runner bars. I only have the tools to work with the small diameter pipe. I do like the way the larger diameter looks on yours though.
