pyromanic Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 from like six months ago still availiable somewhere? It might have even been longer ago, not sure, but I'm remembering a while back Allied Armament posted a pick of his front tube bumper they were making, and now that got a MIG welder I wanna make my own. But I can only find three pages of "off road" threads now. Where's the older stuff or how might I find those pics if there still around? thanks Pyro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That link works too though, thanks man. Should have searched before I asked, sorry. Any way, now that I see those bumpers again, I STILL like the heck out them. Think they are some of the sweetest I've seen. I don't have a bender though, so guess I'm out of luck. Gonna have to go a different route. I think. Thanks again.

Scott in Bellingham Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 tube bumpers....no bender required. they look great, and are VERY functional: install them straight , and with the help of a few trees the ends get a nice bend haaa hhaaaa:banana: :cool: :brow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyromanic Posted November 14, 2006 Author Share Posted November 14, 2006 install them straight , and with the help of a few trees the ends get a nice bend haaa hhaaaa:banana: :cool: :brow: Hey, I like those too. Maybe with cutting some short pieces at an angle could get them to wrap around the corners. I have an antique electric mechanical hacksaw that works. (sort of!) Then put in some expanded metal between the tubes like the AA bumpers. (just for looks I guess, or to keep brush out of the rad) Pyro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I would recommend doing this: notice the bottom tube is not as long as the top one. to match the shape of the car. the top one is also set a bit further out away from the car than the bottom one....it's very slick! I've never had any brush get into my rad. just get some C-channel, drill a couple holes, bolt it up in the stock bumper mount locations. then hold the tubes where you want the, and weld them on.
