I have a 01 TJ and was looking for some bumper build threads. I've looked around a lot and seen a few but cant find any complete ones. Looking for ideas on how everybody mounts them im assuming most just use the stock mounting locations but i would like something stronger than that. I was thinking something like the one at fabwright.com here. Any responses welcome.

Not near as much as you think. Fully welded its about 75 lbs and its out of 3/16 a-36. I think I can get about 4 bumpers or close to it out of a 4x8 sheet. But you have to fit your pieces wisely to conserve steel (I have templates I lay out and trace).

On the bolts, I reused my torx bolts on the tow hooks because I figured it'd be harder for a tweeker to steal that way. Everyone has a 3/4" wrench of some kind. Winch, bumper, and tow hooks could be gone in a couple of minutes.
