So I have a 104" piece of 7"X2"X1/4" channel iron sitting here and a 65" piece of 5"X3"X3/16 steel tubing and a 126" piece of 2"X3/16" steel tubing(round) lying around. I was debating building a rear bumper out of the 5x3 and a front winch bumper out of the 7x2 channel and sliders out of the tubing...what are your thoughts?(yes, I know I will need to do the heavy duty suspension lift to support the added weight).

 

I think you would have one beefy bumper. Alot of weight tho..

 

I like pushing things around...

 

I like the old cow catcher style front ends like the locomotives had.

Good and beefy.
