Sarah buying a condo is crazy. I remember her tearing thru the desert in your explorer with a pale white dad in the passenger seat.

Sorry I don't sell the cad files.

That is cool.

Awesome find. Can't wait to see build 2.0.

https://www.explorerforum.com/forums/threads/building-a-winch-bumper-for-our-01-explorer.469567/ Currently $300 shipped in the USA. You need to provide a piece of 2x2 square tube and mounting hardware.

Yup I make a weld together bumper kit.

Sounds like it will be time to head north and hit some trails in the Sierras.....

the bumper updates are looking great. interested in how you like those backup lights. I need some better lights on my truck.

I will have to see. MLK is always tough with me as it is close to New Years for my work schedule. I will have to see where things are later in the year.

Following. Will have to see how the year plays out and what gas prices are doing next year.

If Brian only wants the swaybar I could use the axle for mock up parts on. I have an 8.8 tone ring on the carrier I can bring you.

I hope to buy one of these 2019+ rangers in about 15 years to build as a wheeler.

Winch mounts to the plate in the center. I designed it using the smittybuilt 8000, harbor freight 8000, and Warn 8000. Should fit most 8 to 12k winches. I know the warn 9.5xp has a longer motor and honestly can't remember if it clears or needs 1/4 inch spacers under the mounting points. I...

My understanding is it has to be a legal turnout as well. On 78 and 79 there aren't many of them.

Of all of your last post I like the last sentence the most. Hopefully this year Dusy will open on time.

Sounds like you need to sell your place and buy your parents place. Get yourself better. We need to do Dusy and or Rubicon this summer.

Somehow I missed this thread till now. So many details your rig had at Moab that I didn't get to check out. Hopefully you have it back together by now.

so much better to follow built threads on a forum vs facebook.

Can't wait to see it back on the trail.

Just in case thing. It is basically a few triangles to gusset the factory mounts and if used with a body lift an additional mounting point higher up to help with leverage.

Let me know. I make them as ordered so there can be a few week lead time before ordering and shipping.

Depending on the size of the 110V welder you could weld it together just fine. Some of them are rated up to quarter inch. There are a few pieces that weld to the frame rails to reinforce the mounts. However if you wanted to put the stock bumper back on you can simply unbolt this one and bolt...

I thought Keven was running the 1354 based d.d.machine doubler in front of his atlas. That is the dubler I am running and thought when I talked to him in Moab he had the same one. I could be wrong. And Brian, a few posts up you said you were done. Now you are talking about a doubler. It...

I thought I had responded to you. Sorry for the delay. I have modified the design a bit from what is shown so it can be made to fit stock height or with a 3 inch body lift. To go to a thinner material would require quite a bit of design time to make everything fit up properly. It the end it...

Sad to here the cancer is back. Will be praying for you.

3/16"

Not at this time.

Thanks for the orders. A few of these have gone out or are getting ready to go out soon.

I have MTRs on my Ranger and Tracy Jeep. 37s and 33s. Overall I am happy with them. However I have noticed I have to air down a lot to get them to work. 6 psi in the Ranger and 8 in the Jeep.

Those valve cover rings are awesome. There is a lot of time in those.

Awesome as always Brian.

We are doing Turkey day in Fresno this year. I might be able to do something a day or two after Christmas though.

Interested to see how you like that welder. I want to get a tig eventually as well. Can that one tig aluminum?

Good use on using material at hand.

Looking good. If the speedo cable ends up being to short you can get on from an Aerostar that might work. It is roughly 9 inches longer if I remember right with the same ends as the Ranger Explorer cable. I am running one in my ranger with my doubler.

Got a chance to catch up on this thread. Hopefully with a reply I will start getting notifications again.

All this work on the Atlas and I stopped getting updates. I am still running the mount Steve posted. It has been great.

Awesome. Can't wait to see it on the trail.

That color should look good on there. No more White Fender Mafia for you. Awesome you found a tailgate. I want to get another first gen ranger someday. I know the chances of finding a nice one are getting harder and harder as time goes by.

Wow.
