Default Best bumper for Off Road?

I want both a front and rear bumper. I would like to be able to move the winch between the front and reaf of the vehicle. I would like to have the rear bumper carry a spare tire, 2 military style jerry cans, a highlift jack and clevis on each.

What would you all recommend?

your only options are to custom make one or modify one from a jeep or similar SUV. Nobody makes bumpers for the blazers.

Start drawing and if you don't know how learn to weld.


I'd suggest against the movable winch, your asking for problems using something rated at only 3000lbs to put hold even a small winch. IMHO they are the worst idea ever and just asking for somebody to get hurt when it breaks under load.

Definitely nice bumpers on that page. Altough I would like to have one a little more tucked in, sort of like whats on the newer Jeep packages. Guess the best bet would be to get a Jeep bumper and start cutting and welding.

For the truth!

I think there is more pride in fabricating, then say just buying it.

Although sometimes its easier just to buy.

A Win/Win situation , lol.
