Got all the business end done on the rear bumper. All that has to be done is a few gussetts and to decide what I want to put in the side panels. Probably go with diamond plate like the front with some recessed backup lights..

Really got what I wanted, a much better departure angle...

Still need to make up the slide-in hitch like the front....Receiver is already welded in and ready to go

Haven't decide if I'm gonna wrap the bumper around the sides yet that's why I don't have any endcaps on the tubing...

good idea on the rear bumper, I snag mine alot.

Looking great as usually Archer....My thoughts on the wrap around thing would be to bring it around maybe 6" to 8" and end it. Unless you have close encounters with your lower sheetmetal there...

Looks great!!!!I'll be starting my new front bumper this week.Someone said earlier to run the tail pipe through the bumper.I think that would be bad a$$ if it was cut off just inside of the bumper.You'd never hit it and it would look sweet!!!

See above post on top of the third or forth pic....lol I'm still not certain but I may cut the body out there and extend the bumper all the way to the wheel. I'm afraid if I do it on the outside of the body it'll grab stuff and actually cause more damage than it prevents..

I had that when I had my pushbar on , I was backing up and a small tree got stuck behind it and dented my hood, my fender and above the headlights, that psuhbar came off the next day and was sold....
