well, i'm getting an used ARB so i'm selling this one. it's still on my 99 for now because the ARB needs some work done on the mounting bracket.
i partially designed this one, the top part was a downey bumper(bolt on top of stock bumper), i made a crossmember using 3/16" plate and .120 rectangular tubing, not just a piece of plate. added 2 front legs, extented the side wings, and added 2 extra legs on the side with .120 round tubing. .
it's very sturdy, it's held by total of 10 bolts on the frame, 5 on each side. all at factory locations, plus it is completely bolt-on, no body modification needed. once you have your stock bumper removed, you can install it in 5 minutes by yourself with a 14mm wrench.
the top crossbar and hoop were powder coated, rest were painted with duplicolor spray on bedliner.
two light tabs on the hoop, you can either mount couple lights on it or, mount your Hi-Lift(i did). the aluminum radiator skid plate alone costed me $85, it's made of 3/16" aluminum plate machine bent and punched.
no shipping, $150
i'll be in san diego from saturday morning till tuesday night, so if you guys down there want to check it out, let me know.
