I Finally got some pics up of the rear bumper I made a while ago for my 99 F-150. It is made of 2 3/8" dom tube, it has 6, 3/4" thick supports, and two of them are drilled and shaped for 3/4" shackels. It is held to the frame with 1/4" 6" C-channel, and the sides (around rear quarters) are tied back into the frame with 1 1/4" dom 1/4 wall tube. It also has two 100 watt driving lights as reverse lights, and it is held to the frame with 10 1/2" bolts. I have "tested" it against rocks, large 44" tire ruts, ice and nothing seems to dent, scratch, move or even phaze it. It has saved me from tons of dammage and only took about 4-5 hrs to make. Now plans are for rock sliders, rear winch (have a mount now and a front winch) and soon with some luck and $$ maybe a exo. Tell me what you guys think.

 

Looks like a beefy setup! Nice job!

Awesome Bumper. I love it. It's so much fun doing custom work. I fabbed rockers all the way around my F150 longbed out of angle iron. My friend just got a welder last week so the skys the limit.
