For a bit more... I'd look at the Bulldog Fab front stubby. Mitch is excellent to work with. Open to new ideas/designs. If you can describe it, draw it, or otherwise get the idea across to him, then he'll make it.

Thanks Bob

WOW! I like that Teraflex bumper and the price is great. I would not have built mine if I found that first. Would have saved me some time and blood.

hey guy's thanks for all the info and opinions. Thanks for the offer popo343 and I'm glad your happy with your wheels. I ordered the smittybilt from 4wd, heres a better pic http://www.smittybilt.com/product/index/54.htm. 4wd has a sale going, 10% off and free shipping on all jeep bumpers, the bumper delivered to my door was $256. I couldn't pass it up. I'll report back when it gets here and I get it bolted up.
