Bill4rest · 03-01-2003, 07:48 PM

Here they are together. My front winch bumper acts like a crossmember bolted to the frame and the hangers

Is that a little-bitty body mount attached to one of the bolts on your steering box?

Actually thats the bracket that holds the return line, you have to cut the body mount off completely.

Any plans to replace the body mount?

That's a "low-profile" body mount

. I sandwiched a piece of rubber bed liner between the clip and the small bracket mounted on top of the steering box. It is booty fab, but it works. That happened to be the only spot I didn't cut out that had some sort of structure left to the sheet metal.

Pappa Smurf · 03-02-2003, 09:55 PM

Thats pretty how long does it take you to build one of those and price

Do you guys have any pictures of the shackle mounts of your shackle reversals?

rotozuk · 03-03-2003, 03:47 PM

Here's mine..

The raw material:

Tacked in:

Winch plate added:

Front bumper added:

frame inverted:

Sorry, I never took a picture of the finished front end. My front axle is moved pretty far forward for firewall clearance. I did not bother to box the shackle mount as it will take a near act of god to bend them.
