In this video I'll show you how to build your own front bumper. In this case for the Scorpion crawler Jeep Cherokee XJ. The front of the XJ is dovetailed narrower than normal which means you cant just go out and buy a bumper to fit... We'll have to make something custom.
A good beginner welder: amzn.to/2eDa8NG
The plasma cutter I use: amzn.to/2et53Ej
A decent drill press: amzn.to/2fq3B85

I have a 91 Cherokee base that I bought 5 years ago, and today brought home a 96 Grand Cherokee, I have watched a lot of your vids over the last couple years. You have helped me out on so many problems and projects that have came up with the Cherokee. I wanted to take a moment and thank you personally for your channel. You continue to to an outstanding job.

Thank you Matt for making these videos. my first vehicle was a pos 92 jeep cherokee that needed a whole lot of work(re wired all electrical systems, painted, lifted 5 inches, transmission rebuild, 4wd and driveshafts, u joints, gas tank, and many other fixes that I learned to do by watching your videos) if I hadn't of found your RU-vid channel I wouldn't know half as much about fixing up cars/trucks and JEEPS as i do now. Your videos introduced me into the wonderful world of off roading and I love it! I have been following your channel since mid zombie jeep project and have watched every video. Please keep up the great work and God bless you.

I just found your videos and enjoy them. When transferring hole to a template, try laying your material over the hole and tap it with the round end of a ball peen hammer. That takes the guess work out. Bumper looks good.

Very informative video, with lots of tips and tricks. Like the use of tubing on the leading edge, It looks a lot better than flat plate. I'll probably use some of your ideas, on my old Powerwagon. I don't own a Jeep but every video I watch, is useful information for the old Dodge.
@dandahermitseals5582
@dandahermitseals5582 Год назад
I would build that fieard edge with full 1 1/2" DM.snd cut the plate to lay it in top at the tubing's cl. A frame member across the fronts with c channel support boxed that the bumper would key on with the winch mount bolts would mount the bumper and reinforce the bumper and winch as well as brackets from the OEM frame. The whole bumper assembly would bolt to the 3 frame projections for strength and easy removal. This inline 6 has a tendency to run hot and U wouldn't want to mess with it.

Very sleek Matt, looks strong and fit for purpose. Many off road bumpers could lose some weight, visual and mass, Chucke2009s F250 comes to mind haha. Having less dead weight over the front whilst supporting a large winch is a good idea for all bumpers, not just for a crawler.

Nice job on the bar, the front bottom plate would serve you better sitting under like you said. The half cut bars could help with a hi lift jack from slipping out.

Looks sweet. I worry about blocking the radiator air flow and overheating. I’m in California. I’m thinking stubby with winch tucked under. I need other project - SYE, rear CV driveshaft and 6 degree shims first.
@jeremyxman
@jeremyxman 8 лет назад
Great project and work! Love the channel. Not sure if DOM tubing is necessary here. People usually use DOM tubing in cage and other structural fabrication because it does not have a seam, so in an impact the pipe wont split along a seam. In this case the pipe is cut in half so you could use a cheaper pipe with the same wall thickens as long as you avoid using the seam in your pieces.

Are you going to seal off the bottom plate on the back side...just worry about dirt and stuff that could get in there and then rust it out. Probably best to seal off? I know you'd lose your access to the winch bolts, maybe you could just weld threaded studs in the top plate for the winch? Just a thought, looks awesome regardless. Love your channel. You taught me how to change unit hubs on a D30 long ago!

Just a thought. You could cut into the grille just enough to sink the bumper back another 2 or 3 inches. Then the winch would still be accessible and you would not need to have the angle brackets on the frame. Otherwise it rocks. I am looking forward to the videos. You just passed Dirt Every Day as my favorite show on you tube.

I like the half tubes, no questions. However, I must say that the hidden winch designs of BadDadFab and BWE seem to lose only 2" of ground clearance, which is made up for by having a bumper that doesn't stick out more than an inch further than the frame.
