WA-WJ

Yes I was interested in the mounting also.

ed: how loud is it with the v8 and the glasspack?

[wjguy]

no pics of the mounts yet but I will try and take some today or tomorrow.

Its not to loud actually, prob a little louder than a flowmaster.

I like the bumper man! The only thing I think you should change is get rid of that factory hitch, Cut out the tin can of a factory bumper these WJ's have and put your hitch in your rear bumper like I did, the clearance has saved my ass multiple times. Hell if you cut that sheet metal out you could also do the extra storage space like I did

ya that is the plan. I am going to build a new gas tank skid at the same time. but I want the hitch to be the lowest point until I get that done.
than I will incorporate the hitch into the bottom of the bumper.
for now we built brackets that mount to the sides of the hitch.

The bumper is built from 3/16th, but its not all that heavy.
tire carrier, back up lights to follow in a month or so but for now I will sand and sand and sand some more and get it all painted up.

[AgitatedPancake]

Cool man. Yeah the 3/16 should help you out for sure. I built mine out of .230 (basically 1/4") and it's gotta be over 100lbs.

[wjguy]

Finally got around to finishing the grinding, sanding, and painting

[lakailimited06]

wow that came out real sharp...any reason you didnt want to ditch the hitch and weld in a receiver?

is there a tire carrier being built next?

also, ill be building my rear bumper soon, still requesting pics of how you mounted it...

again looks sick..

[Jeeptech01]

Yea mounting pics plz. Is it similar to agitatedpancake's above?

[lakailimited06]

on his photobucket ,it looks like he used angled steel and bolted it to the side and the bottom of the rear uniframe rails...

[wjguy]

I am going to be raising the hitch up about 4'' so the hitch itself will be the final mount, as of now I have some 3/16th plate that I put in on each side to locate my mounting position.

Ya I have been playing around on autocad for the carrier, I am currently not working so all jeep related items have been put on the back burner.

once I get the mount done I will post up some pics.

[lakailimited06]

sweet maybe i can do something similar...

[wjguy]

It's been years since I've posted on here. But I figured why not put on an update.

Still have the jeep pretty much the same. Added some lights and a winch and a cage and I am in the process of installing onboard air and moving my batteries. Here are some recent pics.

x2. Makes me wish I went with full widths on my WJ

[wjguy]

Thanks. His Comanche has all the goodies!
1 tons, 5.3l, atlas, coilovers, and he is selling led lights now too so he has some odd 20 misc led bars/ pods on it.

how loud is that compressor and tank in the back?

[wjguy]

Pretty loud. I have a switch in the back by the hatch though so it only runs when I am outside the vehicle filling tires.

Looks nice! Could you post some pics of how you did the cage behind the front seats - B pillar to B pillar? I'm gather ideas for my spring project. Thanks

[wjguy]

nice and simple.
