Nice looking job. Keep up the great Content..

Nice looking bumper.

[@JustinTucker208]

Good looking bumper man! Reminds me of the one I had on ol’ Reggie

[@chadhall2393]

Excellent work Ben!

[@mountaincrawlers8]

Thanks for letting me work on your rig!

Love me some Jimmy Eat World!

Great video as always I’ve been looking at getting this DIY Amazon front and rear bumper kits since it’s 274$ for both the front and rear

[@mountaincrawlers8]

You definitely should! I run both and love them

[@charlierumsfeld6626]

Would you explain what hardware you used? Bolts, length, grade, size? Thanks

[@EvrttGrn]

I like it! I think I would have primered it myself. Primer is easy enough to take off to weld more stuff on and it would also help mitigate any rusting.

[@mountaincrawlers8]

We live in Arizona rust is a very minimal issue lol plus I’m sure it will get painted very soon

[@EvrttGrn]

@@mountaincrawlers8 Gotcha, I live in Missouri so rust is always a concern in the back of the mind.

[@mountaincrawlers8]

@@EvrttGrn definitely understandable

[@jonathancastillo499]

Is there any way you can modify to fit the wj???

[@XJ_Crawlerz]

Fuckin sweet dude! You make it look easy lol.

[@chuckshade7959]

Nice looking bumper , does that xj have front end sheet metal swap or did someone swap in a cad dana 30 ?

[@mountaincrawlers8]

@@chuckshade7959 it’s an 01 that somebody swapped a CAD axle in before he bought it.

[@dantheman6931]

Professionals make things look easy! Awesome job dude! I’d like to add tube work to my bumper but I don’t have a welder…

[@mountaincrawlers8]

Get a welder and practice! It’s a great skill to learn

[@danhambrick6331]

Nicely done.What do you think,one third the cost of a JCR bumper?😁👍👍

[@mountaincrawlers8]

That’s why mines Amazon lol

[@MrSantos8905]

[@mountaincrawlers8]
