well ,i got it on the x2 today.

 

i take it you guys didn't like my bumper.

 

I think it's a nice clean job man!

 

srwshooter, that looks pretty good to me. If I had a longer trailer, I would go the same route. As it is, I get a little bit of trailer rash on the quads.

 

Is that some rubber attached to the square steel tubing? Screwed or glued on?

 

looks like it screwed on to me

 

no its not rubber, UHMW , which is the toughest plastic known to man . i have a jetboat part business ,we use UHMW on the bottom of our jetboats . when you hit a rock it will just slide right off . they also use this stuff to line the beds of big dumptrucks ,it indestuctable almost .
i had some scraps laying around so i riveted it on so it wouldn't get scratched up .

the bottom mounts are made from 1 1/2 x3in box it takes 2 pieces 14in long ,bolted thru the bed with ss bolts. the bumper is 1 1/4 tubing with 1/8sidewall ,i made the bumper 42in and the arms 20in . i think it works great tilting with the bed.

 

Nice clean job! I had a different design in mind, but as long as it serves the purpose, then you're set! Good idea with the UHMW as well.

On a different note... You're 4-wheeler is TOO clean!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
