Exactly!!

I hate it though!!

I've refrain myself so many times now from not playing in the mud due to that problem and it's frustrating!

Hey everybody. I don't really want to throw a price out yet, but it will probably be in the around $600-$700 range unpainted. I haven't even talked to him about production yet, so he might not want to make more. I'll be in touch with him soon and report back.

Side note - One time I got done playing in the mud, then a few weeks later got my tires (little ones) re-balanced. Forgot the mud was still there, so as it eventually fell of, the tires got out of balance again.... that was lame :pat:

Yeah, discount got really pissed at me one time when I brought my truck in covered in mud. They even wrote it on the balancing invoice. "Truck covered in mud."

Well, I was pissed at them because my balance was jacked up in the first place. I hate driving when there is a shimmy.



Sweet bumper BTW!

Wow that is a lot for a rear bumper with no tire carrier, etc.

mean lookin' bumper

I love it! It definitly says "Go ahead, hit me, I dare you!" to all those little rice rockets. Mind if i show the pics to my welder up here? I'd probably have to make a few mods to meet my needs like some diamond tread or other no slip surface on top as i need to get ladders of my top ...maybe some marine no skid instead and keep the open concept...yeah that could work...sorry i digress...when i get mine i'll try to post some pics. cheers Aviator

So I wonder what the price would be if there were 10 or more of us interested in it? If he had some jigs he could knock those things out fairly quickly. BTW - does a bumper like that fit a 2nd gen 4Runner too? The distance from your rear tire to the bumper seems similar.

It looks ideal for protection and departure angle. Nevermind what it cost. What's it WEIGH? Looks like its got to be 90 pounds or more.
