Those look like the ones some guys were having problems with.


Didn't fit right and the company told (more than one person) it was cause their trucks were wrecked and to pound sand. $600+ on a one owner truck even I expect things to bolt right up.

On s10 planet a guy that runs a metal shop out of KY (I think it was) was talking about being in protype stages of a 2nd gen bumper. I offered him the templates of my 1st gen plate bumper but mine is designed to be tall to take up for my 3 inch bl.

Front winch bumper S-10, S-15, Blazer, ZR2, Envoy98-00, Jimmy - (1988-2003): bluelakeoffroad

The base price is 480, a little expensive, but none the less it looks great.

i think that being the only manufacturing company currently offering a
bumper for our type of vehicle is first a little sad, there is probably a market
for us, but the cost is a little high, but daddy likes, im thinking about ordering one, what stinks is the $225 for shipping, the bumper i like is in the $800
range....... lets see, 1 mig welder approx. $300
200 lbs 3/16 metal approx. $300
time + plenty of beer = pricless
