Those look beefy. I'm looking forward to seeing the rear bumper you come up with.

Will you be doing bumper kits for the front and rear like you offer for the LC crowd? I might be interested in a front kit. Since it appears my front bumper is falling apart.....

I will eventually. Once I build a new bumper, I like to build several to make sure they are as easy as 1-2-3 for a DIYer. Too many variables can come into play with an inexperienced fabricator. I try to make the kits as simple as I can for ME and the END USER alike.

Fish, I had a machine shop make them for me. They are the prototype and if I like them I'll put in an order for 50 or so. I use 8-10 of them a month. I've been building my own bronze sleeved solid style for a few years now. But, with the integrated arm I want PURE SMOOTHNESS and a bearing style is the only true way to achieve that, IMO, along with the 5/8" CrMo heim joint.
