It will probably be a long process and I'm not really in a rush, but here's what I'm starting to work on. I can't find what I want off the shelf, so fabrication is the only real option at this point. I need a bumper with a winch mount, better approach angle, a skid plate, and be tough.
I've looked all over the internet and nobody makes anything to suit my needs for the Sport Trac. I've got the tools, the space, a Westin Sportsman brushguard that I wrecked the bottom of, good place for steel, etc. Time and money are the x factors. I'm set on doing this on a "no way" kind of budget because of an upcoming wedding, saving for a house, etc. If you know me at all (which you don't), I get things done at prices I like, lol.
I'm looking for thoughts, suggestions, criticisms and encouragement. I'll also try to make a project write up for this if anyone is interested and if time permits.
The link below is my starting point. What do y'all think, honestly.
