ARB Bull Bar

[HighRoller]

Hey guys,

I have an ARB Bull Bar with winch cut out mounted on a 1990 yj. I was hoping to get 300 plus your stock bumper. I live in Virginia and considering the weight and size it would have to be a local pickup/swap. Thanx for your time.

I'll take any offers at this point. Let me also make clear that nothing is wrong with the bumper i just have a Ramsey winch that will not fit on it.

im from charlotte nc.... i bet that would look nice on my cj or xj... i could have it welded on..... but i could have one custom built for WAY less than 300... how much will you take for it?

 

[bchcky]

custom built for WAY less than 300 bucks?!? where is this secret place. unless you're talking about fabbing it up with the help of a buddy or something, i cant see a custom shop doing on like an arb for less than 300. i've gotten estimates before where it would be cheaper to buy a trailready or an arb.

custom fab jobs tend to be a little rough around the edges sometimes... nothing will match the quality of an ARB.

 

[bchcky]

i wouldnt say that nothing would match the quality of an ARB, i've seen some very well built and durable custom bumpers, but unless you're fabbing it up yourself with your own welder, paying a custom shop for their services will be quite expensive.

my uncle welds handrails for a living. ive seen him do some work that's up to par with buying parts from stock, but i dont really care about that. i said way less than 300 because if i pay for the metal and cut it he'll weld whatever for me. i dont really care about the quality, i want strength.

 

[bchcky]

well thats exactly what i was talking about. if you know someone, then sure, you can get one for less than that. and since you do, good for you, sounds like a good deal. and when i say quality, i'm talking about strength. what else would you be most concerned with with a front bumper other than strength?

 

[NCjeeper]

i thought you meant the quality with the welding, like it being sanded smooth, etc

 

[bchcky]

who cares, sand it smooth yourself.

hahaha thats exactly what i was saying
