Got the reciever and d-rings welded on.
Just needs some paint/bedliner?, and its ready to go.
Total cost to build bumper was $42.00. Add some to that if i decide to coat it with herculiner vs. painting it.

Turned out nice. I think the bedliner would look good on it.

Speaking of liner i need to go get some some so i can get that thing mounted. Can't wait to see it. Damn stuff is $$$ though.
I got the steel cut to length on a rear bumper also.

or the spray on stuff is about 8 dollars a can (what I used on the bronco). two cans would be plenty for it, but not as thick or textured as the roll on stuff.

yup the quarts are cheaper and should be plenty for that bumper, if you cant find it at a store just buy the gallon with the stuff its like 79 bucks at ACE. That way you'll know you won't run out and have extra for other stuff, I think I might copy this design for my truck, was it 42 dollars for the steel?
