XJ Cherokee bumper on Frontier

Thought some of you guys might be interested, I stuck a Mule Expeditions bumper on the Fronty. It's designed for an XJ Jeep, a guy won it at a meet and so gave me a great deal on it. The dimensions are crazy close. Had a local shop (KrawlTex Custom Shop) fab up the mounts for me. Ended up welding it on and cutting the crumple zones off the frame, this thing is stout.

Haven't decided what to do about the washer fluid container, may just sheet metal box it in. There's not alot of room to relocate it into the engine bay unfortunately.

I'm pretty happy with it, all up much cheaper than buying a Fronty specific bumper and it's a nice piece. Highly recommend KrawlTex for any Austin area peeps.

I have a truck. It gets me from A to B. Why I spend so much money changing it, I will never know. Is there a cure for this disease? I have no idea what I would be using all my money for if there was a cure.

looks good. don't try to pull/push anything with it, it would twist those tube mounts right off. looks really good though!
