Random fab projects

[Hunter_mf_]

I’ve been doing a lot of work lately and figured I’d make a thread to post all my random work in so I’m not making new threads for every project, figured I’d start with this 4 runner bumper I knocked out not to long ago, was a tricky one because the customer wanted something that would essentially never work and just look absolutely goofy due to his body style being older then the pictures showed so all the body lines that where followed in the pics provided, didn’t even exist on his truck, so a whole new approach was taken. Was nerve racking due to him just having to trust what I had in mind started with cutting up the oem bumper, then started playing with my main tube/frame horns. After that was hung I wanted to run my skid plate tubes, but also didn’t really wanna just land on the oem crossmember so I made some really small nitered tubes. With partitions to land my tubes on and that came out looking pretty sweet! Since I cut the oem bumper there was only 2 mounting points in the fender wells so I made some tabs for the bumper to slip in front of, and used some countersunk hardware/washers for that clean look yo.little bit of steel it, lil skid plate actions and she was on her way and I had a pocket full of sunshine
