1973 to 1987 GMC/Chevy Winch Bumpers.

There is not much on the body to interfere with the bumper design so I can do just about anything you want.

This one is styled basically like my other winch bumpers but can be modified of course. A few elements on this one were customer specified.

$475 plus shipping for one like this. (generally $65 to the west coast, but as low as $45 the closer you get to Louisville, KY) Email, PM or call for a shipping quote.

1/4" Mounts 3/16 construction.

Thanks for looking.

I've made and sold quite a few of the above bumpers.

Price for the above is now $450 plus a flat $65 shipping in the lower 48 states.

I've done a few different versions lately. PM for a price on these.

The first is a large bumper with the winch inside the bumper.

Do u make anything for the 89-98 trucks? I would buy one of those for my '97 if u can build one.

I just got an order for my first one and will built it as soon as I can get to the junkyard for a bumper/dimensions.

I'll have a new listing for them when it's finished as I've had a bunch of interest.

If you don't see it in a few weeks post up and remind me:D

Thanks,

James

Did you get installed pics of your two latest bumpers? Interested in either of of them. Will they both hold a warn 8274?

Once I build the first one (plate style), I'll be able to do it.

Would like to see those other 2 on a truck when u get time also, thanks

Just got the pic of the tube bumper. I can make it hold a 8274.

http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j118/jamscal/IMG00007-20101219-1200.jpg


I can also make just the winch mount w/o tubes if there is any interest in that.

Thanks.

Cool thanks. I think im wantin the big oversize one. Can you pm me a price for that one shipped to 79701 with a mount for the 8274?

Do you have any pictures of the bumper in the third picture down installed?

Madhouse: PM sent.

No pics yet of the big bumper installed.

I'll try to find the customer's email and bug him for pics.

Thanks,

James

Preview of 88-98 Chevy bumpers. I'm going to be making a separate frame to bumper mount (not shown) to allow for body lift and better alignment.

I sent him an email asking for pics.

How much for the tube bumper for an 85 k10? And possibly with a skidplate?

How much for the tube bumper for an 85 k10? And possibly with a skidplate?


I think I did that one for the same price as the regular bumper: $450 plus $65 shipping.

What kind of skid? There's nothing to bolt the other end to, unless you go back up to the frame maybe?

I could extend that lower panel down and add some holes or plas out a design.

Price on that will vary, but I do a skid plate on Jeep ZJs that is $75 extra.

Thanks,

James

How much for a 83K5 with the one that the winch sets inside, unfinished and will it stand up to a 16.5 warn? Also any pics will be nice

best price quote so far. thank you ill keep this one in mind for sure. have you played around with rear bumpers at all?

Think u could make one for a '77 trail duster?

Yes.

Someone told me that older Dodge Front Frame rails are 28" apart like the Chevy...if that's true we're good to go.

I can make mods of course to make it fit otherwise.

Let me know if you want to order one.

Thanks,

James

First pic. He said his frame horns are bent a bit and he's not finished adjusting.

There is plenty of adjustment in the bumper as the mounts are separate from the bumper.

This truck also has a 3" BL and I can make those brackets work with stock height or any BL.

Got hammered on shipping, so these bumpers are going to be $575 plus shipping to your zip. Plan on $100 but I'll get a quote. Cali might be a bit more, closer to 40213 (Louisville) should be a bit less.

http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j118/jamscal/88chevybumper.jpg

I'll make a new listing for these later bumpers in the near future.

Thanks for looking.

Any updates on the big style chevy bumper? I would like to see the top of it to compare it to your 88-98 bumpers or mounted would be great?

No response from the customer...here is an in progress pic of the top of it. Access hole is for the winch lever of course. I can make that hole square, put a plate on top, etc.

http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j118/jamscal/IMG_5376.jpg

There are several in progress pics before and after this one in my photobucket account. Feel free to browse it. Page 4/5 of the main album:

http://s78.photobucket.com/albums/j118/jamscal/

Finally, I made that big one based on the customer's wants. I can make just about anything you want.

Thanks,

James

May be a weird question....what's the weight difference between the plate bumper and tube bumper for the 73-87. Is the plate version way heavier than the tube?

Thanks

Thanks

I don't remember the weight of the tube bumper but it's less than the plate. My regular plate bumper is in the neighborhood of 70lbs. The tube bumper was probably 45-55lbs.

Thanks,

James

Right now I"m quoting 3 weeks for delivery...pretty busy.

Usually I run about two weeks out.

http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j118/jamscal/DSC06452.jpg

Interested in the bumper from pic 1 for my '86.

Got any pics of one with a bull bar/brushguard/ similar?
What would the added cost be for one added?

I'm looking for a little extra radiator protection against bambi as my rig is also a D.D...and a little extra winch protection.

Something like this would be sweet.

(Stolen from nates4x4.com from jeep bumper)

Also, can you do rounded shackle mounts, vs the squared off ones you have pictured?

Thanks!

I can do anything from a simple hoop as pictured to a full upper bar.

Upper bars welded on really hurts the shipping. In fact, they usually have to go truck freight.

I ship a bunch of tubes with the bumper but unwelded, and the customer has them welded on locally. A simple hoop like that may be an additional $50. Maybe $75 for a hoop with two side supports and $100 or more for full upper bar with two additional supports.

You might look at my xj or zj bumper threads to see some of those styles.

Thanks,

James

Hey, saw your bumpers.. they look great. How soon could I have one made for a 1997 Suburban, unpainted (like the one that is on the white explorer), that would handle a 10,000 pound wench? I am in Indianapolis and would be more than willing to drive down and pay in cash and pick it up when it is ready. I grew up in Valley Station. What side out Louisville are you on?

WINCH. WINCH. if you have a 10K 'wench'...she is a big girl... LOL

I don't paint any of them, and I'm about two weeks out currently on building bumpers.

Need at least a deposit to get started.

I grew up in Valley Station too and my parents are still there. Near the ZOO right now and my shop is close to GE Appliance Park.

Thanks,

James

Would a $250 deposit be okay? I can bring it down to your shop next weekend. How much more would it be to have the bar that goes over the winch? I'm sure we can work out the details when I drop off the deposit. By the way, I went to Jesse Stuart high school when it was still a high school. Graduated in '80.

$250 will be fine.

Small world, I went to Stuart (middle).

Usually an extra $50 for hoop over the winch area.

-James

ok great r u around ur shop on Saturdays? if not i can bring it to you on a work day. i have a buddy that might be able to bring the deposit to you. either way, what year did u get out of high school? i lived in villa anna subdivision. did you know anyone with the last name Gary or Slusser.

Usually not there on Saturdays, but meet customers on Saturdays sometimes. Usually not a problem depending on my schedule. Otherwise I'm at the shop from 8-5 M-F

Thanks.

How about a plate style rear with a swing out tire carrier (83 GMC Jimmy)?

james give me your shop address and a buddy of mine that still lives there will come by and paid the deposit this week to you
thanks pat

How about a plate style rear with a swing out tire carrier (83 GMC Jimmy)?

Got one going out tomorrow.

This is going to mount to the factory 1/2" thick mounts that stick out from the frame.

Don't have a truck to build from otherwise. Similar style to my explorer bumpers with tire carriers if you want to see one installed.

In progress pic:

WV, I sent you a PM, call anytime as well.

I broke my knee coming down the hill and trying to take a hard right onto Andalusia.

88-98 silverado front bumper pricing to 60010?

PM sent.

Price on the 88-98 bumpers is $575 plus shipping. Usually $100 to ship.

I've sold quite a few lately and hope to have some more installed pics soon.

Here is another view of the earlier install, before it was lined up:

It's getting a tire carrier with jerry can mounts and I should have installed pics in a few weeks.

Thanks for looking!

Earlier Chevy for Warn 16.5 with removable top plate for access:

http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j118/jamscal/IMAG0475.jpg

I can sink any kind of winch in a bumper, the 16.5 mounts feet forward and that front plate is 1/4".

Bumper I built for a Fire dept a few months ago. Receiver mount front with full brush guard:

nice your close to.. tag for easy finding

James,

You still building bumpers and such? I am in need of a swing out tire carrier on my Ex. I am back in KY now, so i could easily shoot up to louisville.

PM me and i will give you my number

Do you have any installed pics of this bumper? I like it a lot!



I've made and sold quite a few of the above bumpers.

Price for the above is now $450 plus a flat $65 shipping in the lower 48 states.

whats the price on the tube bumper for a 75 k5 plus shipping to sac ca also will it hold a smittybilt 12000 winch thanks

I'm interested in just the bumper center on the tube bumper to hold a 8274 and fit a 81-up truck.
Any idea what shipping to Alaska 99567 would be?

No pics on the big bumper installed unfortunately.

Hybrid bumper same price as the regular, upper hoop/side supports will have to be welded on locally to save on shipping. The winch should fit fine but I'll double check and make adjustments as necessary

Just the center can be made as well, but to make one for a 8274 would be more custom and not look exactly like the 'regular' center. I'm thinking $450 shipped to Alaska would be a fair price. (I'm guessing a center would run $75-100 in shipping charges).

PM, call or post for more info.

Thanks for the interest, guys.

Slightly larger and more aggressive version for the 73-87 models.

This one is for a 1" body lift.

It's going out Monday and hopefully I'll get installed pics on this one.

The older trucks are fairly simple to do any sort of custom design on.

I'd like to see one that tucks the winch up under the grille in front of the crossmember. My friend did this himself with the stock bumper, but I'd like to do this with a nice heavy bumper.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12834916/bumper.jpg

Frame rails are 28" outside to outside...less than 24" inside if you're lucky.

Warn 12000 is just over 24" long, 8000 is under 22", so it would have to be offset.

But, pick your winch and I'll make anything for you, and hopefully sell a few more in the process.

-James

can you or have you built one like pic#66 or the one on the red tahoe for an 06 gmc sierra 1500?

Here's a 2000 I just did. Not too familiar with the later trucks and frame mounting differences for the 2000+, but we can compare notes.

Did a total bolt-on mounting over the factory mess of stock bumper mounts...really it needs to be cut off but some don't want to cut anything.

http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j118/jamscal/IMAG0592.jpg

This is the mess I was referring to:

http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j118/jamscal/IMAG0588.jpg

is that one the same one as in post #63 and 66? Any more pics of it alittle closer?

is that one the same one as in post #63 and 66? Any more pics of it alittle closer?

No, it's made for that 2000. Similar design, though.
