rear tube bumper builders please!

[Kyle0614]

I would greatly appreciate it if all u welder's and fabricator's out there could give me a price on a rear tube bumper as I have recently got in a wreck and just want to go ahead and replace it with tube while i'm repairing stuff on the x. My ZIP is 27834 and if u all could give me a ballpark price for tubing and labor and shipping that would be greatly appreciated. BTW closer the builder, cheaper the tube, and best deal for labor would be greatly beneficial to me as I don't have much money right now at the moment...but I would like a rear bumper exactly like this one..... see below

Josh (owner of that truck) lives across the street from me. Why don't you ask him to make you one? I know he has 20-40ft. of that tubing in his shop...I helped him unload it.

Could u ask Josh if he could subscribe to this thread and see how much shipping to NC my ZIP is 27834 and cost of material etc...i will most likely be doing this around my birthday which is in june i'm just gathering up some ideal prices to see what i'll be working with. Thanx for the help man. BTW nice fast reply. Ty!

Now that's one sweet explorer!!

It was kind of a custom job as it wraps around the sides and welds to the frame in five spots...i extended the frame a little in the back to make the bumper stick out a bit so I could sit on it or set my beer down. Kills the departure angle but it gets the job done. One day when I have a better place to work and a better welder than my crappy 110v I'll start makin some bolt ons for y'all

NJ to NC is not far...you can meet in MD....plus hes just lookin for an estimate...

 

[Mud Bug 94]

[Mud Bug 94]

[Kyle0614]

No clue, also the biggest die I have for my bender is a 1.75 right now, also would need a design, need hitch? d-rings? fit on the truck? : I dont have a 2nd gen

 

[Kyle0614]

thx for ur help savage : i have been in a wreck the day after valentines and from the police report it looks as if it will be both our faults and both insurance companys are probably going to pay for the damages. as soon as i get the turn around on if i'm getting a check, i am prepared to offer u $150-175 range for that bumper as i showed on that one explorer in the first post. plus whatever shipping is. if i sent u the basic tube and brace design for bumper on a post is that price range firm with you ? plus whatever shipping would be. i am very interested in doing this maybe within by march at least. thx for ur help.

 

[Kyle0614]

i know my cad work is not that great but here is a rough sketch of what i would like to have done. all of u feel free to post any kinda estimates and such.

I would love to toss a bumper together for you, but it might be a better idea for you to find someone local to build it so you end up with what you want made
