Spence, how are the Bumpers finished off, are they powder coated? and can I spy a high lift jacking point on the right side. I would also be interested to find out what gauge steel you are using and how far back the 8274 looks like sitting.
Looks good so far mate.
Guardian.:
WE DONT powder coat anything its lovely for show but no good in the rough stuff, i wont pretend our stuff is stronger, it isnt, but it doesnt bubble ,crack and go horrible when its damaged, you can touch it up as and when, as powder coat has to be blastedoff and redone.
the steel is over the top in all respects when you consider you are bolting it to a chassis madeof 1.5mm or something.
the main plate is 10mm so it will not twist or warp, the rest of the mountings are 6mm and the tubes 3 and 4mm, its more than adequate nomatter what your doing, without being to heavy, the tubular braces make a big difference to its rigidity and strength.
we designed ours to keep the warn 8274 tight to the vehicle, this does mean a fair bit off grill chopping, and on the disco/rrc moving the gearbox oil cooler but etc, but i think its an ace winch bumper for it.
rob will no doubt tell you what he thinks soon!
im not gonna say ne more or i will end up in trouble as usual.
