Re: Winch mount bumpers for a 70

The last two I posted are front bumpers but you are missing the point. These are not going to be direct bolt-ups. You are going to have to modify them slightly. If you find the right one, it may be as simple as cutting off the ends, sectioning, and then welding back together. The mounts will no doubt have to be adjusted but I am sure this all could be done for a couple hundred bucks, hopefully less, at a welding shop. If you can weld, all the better and it will be kind of fun, except these things are pretty heavy!

This would be much cheaper than starting from scratch, and probably look tons better too.

Check out Craigslist in your area as the ones I posted were just a fraction of the ones out there!

Here's a guy in Waco who will build one from scratch, but I bet any decent custom will end up over $1000...It's common to find those Ranch Hands starting at $2000..

Good luck and post what you end up doing!
