Roo all set for snow


Recommended Posts

I cant take credit for the design

 

I saw a pic of soobme's bumper and designed my own version of it.

took a lot of time trying to get it all to bolt up correctly and fit the contour of the front of the car.

I want to add a skid plate that will come off the bottom of the bumper and go under the car some day soon. and driving/fog lights.

wow that suby is just like mine. does your have the d/r in it, and are you running any lift to fit those tires?. also how did you get the 14s did you do the toyota rim drill. i am curious because i would love to have bigger tires. anyway your car looks great, and i love the bumper.:D

That looks just like mine did BEFORE I cut the fenders ect.

That bumper turned out great! Glad that my desine was helpfull to U;)

You are right about that lower bar, it will make a great place to mount a skid plate. I don't know how hard U will beat your car, but I bent the lower(chin bar) bar on mine so now I have a 1/4" guset that is in the center to help suport it in case of hard impact;)

check this side pic.

 

thanks again to soobme for the great bumper idea. and now I keep the beatings to a minimum. this is primarily my daily driver/camping car/snow vehicle. I try to save the beating for my toyota pickup. I have a few other changes but they were not so easy or cheap (intercooled custom 2.5exhaust all the way out from the turbo)

well the trip was almost a complete failure. the road was shut down 3 miles from the resort due to an avalanch that was being cleared:temper:

so 300+ miles of driving to snow board on the side of the road.

but the tires and suspension did great in the snow.

 

we watched a lifted f150 get stuck in a snow bank while tring to make a u turn. some of the best entertainment of the day.

 

NV zeno- you know about MT Hamilton? thats where I grew up. I miss that place. yeah I managed to snow board there too:D
