i got the dimensions and took them to a friend to weld them
noy an easy job a lot of cutting in the crossmenber in order to fit the winch plate
not 100. my bring it up about 1/2"

honestly i know looks good but don't love it, no as clean as atthehelms bumper, still a lot of stuff to fix.

I think it looks good Carlos. You say that's stage two, is there a stage three that fills in the corners with plate? It looks like you could do some bolt on extensions for the 'wings'. I say bolt on so you don't have to grind off that beautiful finish.

that bumper would look awesome being short like that if the fenders where replaced with a tube fender that is much closer to the body and moved the blinkers, But I agree with AtTheHelm just needs some bumper extensions. But looks good.

almost positive some jk flares will fit the front with minor modifications. problem is the back flares. changing front and not the rears does not make sense

anyways this kk is on a never ending build and flares are on the target

Very nice, it really doesn't stick out as much as I imagined it would. I really like how you trimmed the fenders, very clean looking. Nice work but it makes me want to buy a winch bumper to try out my adapters. :twisted:

car at the jeep deales ship again... my kk loves to visit every four months.
two monts ago the TIMP, and front output axle was replaced

now my steering blew again, this time it made a pop noise and steering fluid is all over my undercarriage. my steering rack was replaced last year in aug and now it i leaking at the passenger side boot, but it xploded with pressure to the point that fluid came out trough the front wheel, shock and spring and control arms are full of power steering fuild

now what is causing my power rack to blow, not even a year since they replaced one.

maybe my lift, mud terrains???

Did they replace the rack and pinion before or after your lift?
