OHV_kj's front bumper

James, I have some 2" LED marker lights I'll sell you.

Who needs to be approved to get on here? I recently activated a screen name of "tigger".

On your turn signals James, do your blinkers now blink fast? Mine do, and it doesn't bug me, but I heard switching to LED signals will do that. I guess you can buy a flasher unit replacement made for LED signals to make it blink at a normal speed again though. Not sure I'll ever bother.

I won't be adding any marker lights to my front end.

Now go start on a rear bumper to match. :wink:

Looks really good!

yeah they blink fast... the leds don't pull as much current as halogen bulbs do, so the jeep thinks that a light is out... i got some cheap marker lights to go into the bumper... we have inspections here so i need something... i'll let the gut know he's ggod to go on here...we just lifted his kj rene with a daystar lift... i'll be getting some more pics up soon... the shop got really crazy for a few days so we needed to put it on the back burner...

Did you end up keeping track of labor and supply costs? I'd buy one.

My LED's blink normal. $22 bux on ebay...

They are for a motorcycle and they are plenty bright day or night...
You can see them in this thread:

They have a two wire hookup. I hooked them up where the sidemarker lights hook up and they come on with the parking lights and then flash with the turn signals.

Also, I have had it inspected since putting these on and it passed.

OHV, will you be also making one that is compatable with the 05-07 years also? Or only the 02-04?

ohv_kj · **Posted:** Tue Oct 06, 2009 3:58 pm

ok front bumper is done for now... decided to wait on lights and other things later

I really like the color. It off sets the black, can't wait to make the stinger and flairs

Side View

How far it sticks out

Nice workbench, table, beer bottle holder, etc.
Looks good , is that Hammertone paint? My ARB is getting ready to be repainted someday due to rock chips/ Toyotas/ deer/ etc.

riptricket · **Posted:** Tue Oct 06, 2009 11:04 pm

can you get some night pics/video of your led marker lights!

I'd really appreciate it b/c I am thinking of getting some to put on the side of the kj fenders.

Thanks!

That is a very nice bumper. Had something like that in mind to build myself if I ever get the energy to do it.

Looks good man. Much more finished look than a chopped plastic bumper. Great work.

here is a better frontal shot

When will we see action shots of the new bumper? :wink:

ohv_kj · **Posted:** Mon Oct 12, 2009 4:04 pm

maybe this weekend if everything falls into place

sweet bumper! looks like your parked at a monster truck rally beside that huge ranger... the stinger and a winch will really complete it.

ramlebliberty · **Posted:** Mon Oct 12, 2009 6:05 pm

that ranger is tiny compaired to some of the other beasts they have lurking around there.

i had a fun time trying to get a 20" beadlock off a 46" michelin today.

nothing better than a 300 lb tire :twisted:
