That looks awesome man! I wish I had the know how and resources to make my own rear bumper. Would finally be able to make one I like that's not close to 200 lbs!

I'd say it's under 100 lbs.
college level engineering graphics payed off for sure.
I bout the steel as scrap and did all the work myself.
Is it as nice as a poison Spyder bumper? No, but now it won't hurt as much when it meets the rocks. It's really gratifying to know I built it myself.
