i am pretty happy with the result , it takes me about 10 to 15h of labor


cardboard design





fabrication and testing to get a perfect fit












get it paint with duplicolor bed liner paint

 

Thats it... I've gotta learn how to weld! Very nice!

 

nicely done

 

Welding was the easy part of that build, I can weld but getting all the pieces right woudl be a real challenge. And making the welds look clean after they are holding.

Great job. And Johnny 5 I'm just thinking out loud here I understand your sintament.

 

Good job!!! Came out really nice Wish I knew how to weld

 

Man, that is killer sweet looking!!

 

That looks GREAT !!!!! You can call it the sleeper bumper

I like the angles and how you made it go all the way down and attach to the cross member. I think you should have put Deluxe Sleep System on it though. It looks pretty familiar to the one I just installed except I didn't make mine. If I had those skills I'd try but no such luck.

 

I like the look, but how thick was the metal you used?
Most of the aftermarket bumpers are 3/16" steel.

 

I wondered also. That looks like 10-11ga sheet.
