Custom stubby front bumper ideas

Get a Moto bolt. Cheap, made in America, and looks great.

It's funny... If you look at my profile pic, I have the same bumper too. I sold it for 100 bucks or something. The motobilt was about 250

@Joe.B, I had that bumper once. Tried to figure out how to stubby it. What @hosejockey61 did is as good as it gets I imagine.

...and that's a loose statement lol. If somebody is prioritizing money to other projects then this is a reasonable modification. Otherwise I would go with a different bumper.

The one thing I don't like abut those bumpers is that they leave the anti-rock unprotected. I built ends around mine that have scars from impacts that would have otherwise damaged the antirock or the bolts holding the arms on.

@Joe.B I agree with the expressed sentiment to sell that bumper and get a stubby, even though that won’t satisfy your desire to fap.

I have that exact bumper (body armor). I've modded it twice. Still ugly as sin but it takes a beating.

Mike,I love your videos,if I were in Colorado instead of Missouri you would be doing my regear,keep up the good work!

Yeah, I thought that was a pretty good idea when I saw you cap the ends. My brain immediately turned on and I started thinking about how I could cap the ends in mine.

I don't like that you'd have to pull the bumper to do maintenance on the anti rock or sway loc, though.

Stock bumpers are normally pretty close to free, at least in my area.

A lot can be done with the OEM front bumper. They look good shortened and capped with the OEM fog lights, tow hooks, and rubber push pads.
