I need a welder, the house I am in now only has 110 for the electrical... and I am moving into an apartment by july.. FML LOL!

The bug deflector did nothing on the jimmy, bugs still got past it, and it was a trap for snow in the winter, and it would just melt, and cover the grille with ice

I've got the welder it's time and materials I can't seem to manage. Definitely looking forward to seeing your sliders and bumpers because its something I've thought about tackling for a while

I'm to cheap to buy the steel unless I have to. My bumper cost me seven bucks for the paint

Yeah I hate that I am going to have to buy it but I don't have any at all laying around and I can't seem to find any on CL that anyone is selling so it looks like I get to get butt humped by a supplier if I actually want to build anything

Just go to a JY and grab a section of frame rail, cut/weld where you need and bam, a bumper so tough a $2 steak will shy awake from it.
