D2 Prerunner Style Bumper
Just about finished with a bummper I've been building for my D2. The main tube is 2" x .140 wall, the hoop and front supports are 1.75" x .120 wall, and the side supports are 1.5" x .065 wall. The brackets are 1/4" plate. Should have the skid done and powder coating done by next week. I've got around $50 in metal and around 15-20 hours in it. This is my first fab job, so let me know what ya'll think!

I mainly built it for the better clearance and approach angle at stock height. The approach angle is around 55 degrees now. It'd take a lot to build it into a legit prerunner, and being in college, I don't have the money haha. I plan on building most of my stuff as a prerunner style though, its cheap, light, and functional. I'm helping a friend do a prerunner build on an old f150 right now though, so that's where the whole idea/design came from.
