Well.....pics please...

Once I get a welding bench put together I will be looking at fabbing something. Not sure what yet.... Would like to do custom front and rear, but materials are not cheap.

Do you plan putting an angle in it like the one above?

What about a winch mount?

Talking

i have angles in it just i dont have the side pieces made yet havent gotten my blazer over to school in a couple weeks but i did do alot of welding today :P inside and outside is welded i however dont plan on putting a winch hole in there yet since i just dont have the funds to buy a winch to put in it and it would look stupid if there was just a big hole there with nothing to fill it up

well heres some pic's :P

Looking good so far...

I`d put some beefy mounts to the frame in there, though...

Damn, you made me build my own bumper...

its going to be boxed in with gussets :P and the bolt is going to be welded on to make it easier to take off and put on

Which bolt do you want to weld in? The nuts are on the car, so how do you plan on tighten them?

I think I`ll use some plates that mounts to the frame where the tow hooks where...

Looking good so far. Nice welds too. Not sloppy and look strong
