Clevis Mounts
I figured that $100 was way too expensive to buy crappy brackets. My PJ bumper was purchased used from cruiser1027.
I don't have the original pics here, how ever I sand blasted the bumper and powder coated it a textured black.
The mount in the photo is 304 stainless. They took a few hours to design and to make a fixture to cut out. I should have it TIG welded tomorrow if time permits. Anyhow, you can get an Idea of what they will look like on the vehicle.
Machining the pocket;
This gives a better idea of what I had in mind
Yeah they will probably last longer than the Jeep itself....
I will post finished pics over the weekend.

This has taken me a while, you can see my 35s in the first photo, the welded clevis mount in the second.

This is how a good TIG weld should look, 1/4" of penetration using a 300A welder. There's actually two overlays for strength.
