dontknowitall Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) I have been toiling with the idea of a rear bumper bar and came up with this..using a F100 bar and modify it.. I made it the same size as the front bar, the F100 is a lot bigger..after resizing made a step platform Edited May 12, 2015 by dontknowitall 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merle Coggins Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Nice work. That looks like it belongs there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desotodav Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 ...I made it the same size as the front bar, the F100 is a lot bigger..after resizing made a step platform Well done Ryan. That bumper looks great! It's funny that I never considered that a F100 bumper would fit there - even when I supplied my Brother-in-law with a front bumper for one of his 50's F100 trucks a while back as it was a match for what he needed. I will have to take the rear bumper off my Suburban van and use it as a template. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate, had to cut down the width -re-weld and then shorten the length. the F100 has the same shape as the front bar..without a bumper at the back your vulnerable from rear enders...I also made support brackets running from the chassis..

Desotodav Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 You got it registered yet Ryan? I showed my old mate Arnold your spare tyre mount & he is planning on doing the same with his. You might have to patent these good ideas of yours! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Balazs Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Looking good........but I kinda did a double take when I first saw these photos. Looks a bit like the back of a VW Bus. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
