Man it's killing me...my deadline is rapidly approaching, and I still have modeling and all the drawings to do, get drawings out to machinist & waterjet, etc. I've done no work on it all week, save a little surfing to find a few purchased parts, because my computer decided it was time to retire late last week. So this may be the last you hear from me for 4-5 days as I'll be balls to the wall every minute upon receiving some boxes from the big brown truck tomorrow...

Wish me luck :5SHOTS:

Havent been around in while been kinda bussy. But to no offence to anyone, Why are we re disigning a rear bumper that was done to perfection by RL. He had it down to what ever options you needed. Exactly how many people bought it? I did not due to the fact that at this time I dont need one. Not taking anything away from you Boiler , you do excellent work. Just a thought! But I will take a peek at your design when completed. Good luck.

2 people want one as of now, me and the guy who paid me to make the first one. :D

I guess I don't see what RL has to do with me designing a bumper, even if he was still offering them for sale. Isn't this a free country? Aren't the members of this site free to buy what they want from whoever the want, or nothing at all?

They aren't sending me orders, they're just giving me much appreciated feedback when I asked them some questions.

FYI I'm planning on developing a full set of armor for MY Liberty, and also offering it to the general public. Including things that other people do and don't make, or make well.

Thanks guys!

Sorry, I took your post to mean that they owe it to RL to not give me their opinions on my design. Text & intent interpretation once again stir up confusion.

I didn't like RL rear bumper, I actually didn't like his front bumper either. Just not my style, I do want new bumpers and with RL not designing anything new or old any longer Boiler has my full attention along with many others. I like what he is doing and would consider buying one in the future if it suites my needs and style.

Also Boiler if you can design a front bumper that looks like the stock 05-07 front bumpers after the trimming. I would buy one as long as I can use my front hitch or incorporate a hitch.

I am interested in a rear bumper was well. That or make one myself but I know the design and quality will not be anywhere as nice.

I like the radiator skid you made as well. I need to do something for the front of mine as well
