Is that welded to the frame?
 






Is there a smaller version. I love the look, but dont want it to stick out as far

what it LOOKS like to me...
there's a bar welded on the frame between the 2 frame horns, and another crossmember welded underneath the frame rails.
The bumper then bolts to those pieces.
:bounce:
 






bloody hell thats nice, i wish he was a sit esponsor or somethin...group buys!!! i really want one of those.

Talk to Pottsy, he designed and built that one exactly as Matt wanted it. He'll build it just about any way you could think of.

Nope, wanted it fully removable. Somebody on rrorc linked me here, sorry. I know it sticks out quite a ways, but that's exactly what I wanted, something that would move crap out of the way instead of bust a headlight. Pottsy does hella work, we spent 3 hours drawing it up in CAD before the first piece of tube was even bent. He's done a full 6 point cage for me before too. Price, let's just say LESS than $500... soon as it warms up, gonna take it off and herculine it, and the winch goes in in a couple weeks! :thumbsup:
 






I want one, but not if there is any welding involved. I want on that bolts on like the Dixon Bros. bumper.
 






man, that looks mean as hell :eek:
 






i sent an email out cuz i want one, still no response. also asked about his wicked tranny crossmember
