I picked up a ARB winch bumper that was on a W.V. state forest rescue truck, a Range Rover.



With quite a bit of cutting, grinding, fabricating an welding I fianlly made it fit. I still have to fabricate a steel tube skid plate, I'll hopefully have that done by Friday as long as the weather cooperates.



I need to come up with the rest of the money to get the 9000k Warn winch from the guy I bought the bumper from.



Here's a couple pictures of how it sits now.

This is another project in a line of things I'm doing, the tire carrier was first done...

Rock sliders and gas tank skid plate are next... Stay tuned



:banana:
 
Thanks, the factory bumper cover was the same height as the center cap on the wheels so ya I really improved my aproach angle. I still need to build a skid plate and have all the tube for that, just need good weather and time after work.
 
Eddie, their not State Park stickers. lol



One is a "Appalachian Search & Rescue" with the EMS symbol and mountain background. The other sticker is a "Mountain Rescue" with the Medic symbol and mountain background.



I'm leaving them on there just for character. :supercool::grin:
 
Nice job Jerry. That thing looks like it means business.



Careful though. In photo 3 it looks like the "big guy upstairs" is about to squash you back into reality!:grin::bwahaha::bwahaha:
