i wish warn made them that away for the 500. dad and i are trying to get rid of his stick welder so we can get a mig. when we do im going to build something nise for the the foreman.

It's a very good bumper. Saved me and quad from a tree when I first rode at night. If you fab something out like that, it'll be sick.

 

[SSpeckerwood]

not as much good stuff made for the 500 as is made for the 450. unfortunately

 

[toodeep]

Should be enough for now, if I search hard I can find a lot more.

 

[SSpeckerwood]

WOW!!!! those r some burly s.o.b.'s

Heres my front and rear

 

[2003 foreman es]

NICE REAR!!!:lol:

 

[h22ate]

I like it

 

[TXTee]

Don't need a rear but after seeing those, wouldn't mind it just for the appeal. Who fabbed this one? Looks like a fit for Buzz.

A few beers, some tubing, a chop saw, and a welder and things just come together. I had a lot of square tubing left over from shipping crates so those bumpers was pretty cheap to make and why they are all out of square tubing. The 500 Rubicon D was pondering on a bumper so I took a picture of a machine and sketched one on it. Then I had to start building it... we use the bumpers a lot from pushing on each other to pushing trees out of the trail.

 

[TXTee]

Good work, TD. Let me know if you ever get bored again. And how much does it stick out from the rear?

 

[Dawg Fan]

just curious...can you tell the added weight is there? I do some pretty rough ridin and have never even thought of needing a different bumper? What do you guys do with them????

 

[TXTee]

Smack trees - literally.....It more protected the plastics and lights than anything.

 

[h22ate]

I clear trails alot cause my buddies are too lazy too so I maul over trees and whatever else is in the way. With the bumpers the way I have'm nothing in the front or rear has a chance of getting broke or even scratched for that matter. Its also nice because its a good tow point for you or others. When I did mine I couldnt tell they were there.

 

[Dawg Fan]

oh...ok....i guess i just try and avoid the trees.....ha ha

 

[SSpeckerwood]

you know sometimes no matter how enticing the tree maybe we shouldn't always push it over to "build new trails". thats what gives the tree hugging, bunny humping, grass eating individuals ammunition for the endless compaining and shutting down of trails. until we rid the green earth of these ppl we cant do it. dont get me wrong. i love doing it. but i love my trails being open more. just food for thought

 

[TXTee]

I wasn't trying to kill the tree. Just couldn't see well.
