[QUOTE="Pook, post: 1229256, member: 16813"] Decided on building a bolt on front bumper to bring the rig to max allowed clearances of Werock's specs. I could of cut farther back on the main tubes and re worked the shock towers but I decided to make a bolt on "frame extension" bumper thingy instead. Goals were to get the bumper up to maximum height allowed which I understand it to be the top of the 37" tire and 16" between the frame rails at ride height. A couple pluses to the bolt on bumper idea were it becomes somewhat disposable and easy to replace when it gets smashed up, and if I ever want more than 90deg approach angles I can just build a new bolt on bumper. Start of the bumper and checking clearances when flexed. (the flatbar mounting plate is just there for mock and will be getting cut up all fancy later :flipoff: ) [/QUOTE]
