Design a REAR BUMPER for a JEEP CHEROKEE XJ 

A DIY version would be very possible. We’ll see how this first one turns out. If it does work then I’d willing to sell DIY kits of it.

@@TheOffRoadCorner Just went to your website - no mention of a DIY kit for the rear bumper. Nudge nudge ;)

Would you sell a PDF plan for this? Then the average joe can lay it on on some steel and cut it out with a grinder and weld it up.

Thanks man. I'll be building this very soon

thanks man. Build video coming soon.

M3RCY you won’t have to wait long. Plan is to cut it out in a few days

Yeah I’ll do a video that for sure. I want to do a the rear disc swap on my jeep.

Hey if it works well that may be a option.

Hahaha. I had a hard time finding a sliver hatch when I bent mine and broke the rear glass. Maroon was my only choice

Thank you for the input man. I think down the road I would add a mount for a gas can. I'm not sure where I would put it but I'd figure something out. The hitch mounted shackle instead of the dedicated D-ring tab would save of space and you only need 1 recover point on the rear. when I built those D-ring mounts I was only thinking about adding a recover point. my only concern what hitches though is that hang down low compared to what I have modeled. Thanks for the tip about the quarter panel. I didn't even think about the wiring for the taillights.

Thanks man. I’ve been enjoy your videos. Building bumpers isn’t easy as you know.

I basically had to manually create it. So you have create a plane perpendicular to the bend. Then create a sketch of the bend area you want to remove. Then cut using the sketch you just created. As far as I know there isn’t a option on any modeling software for this.

@@TheOffRoadCorner good to know. Thanks for the reply!

It will be tab and fold. I’ll probably do it in a couple of pieces so I can squeeze it on to a 5’ sheet

@@TheOffRoadCorner Sweet. That sounds awesome.

I'm using Fusion 360. it's great software and its free for personal use

@@TheOffRoadCorner What would you rate the learning curve of the software on a scale of 5?

This software is pretty straight forward. That being said I still struggle with something like constraining lines and parametric modeling. Learning to use fusion 360 is on the easy side. I’d say 2 out of 5. Try it out. It’s completely free for personal use.

once I have the model where I want it, I will make plans for it.

@@TheOffRoadCorner I also sent you an email...thanks for your answer.

@@TheOffRoadCorner any update ?
