DIY Bumper

Forgot to make a post about this earlier. I got tired of constantly damaging my rear bumper when off roading, but didn't want to spend $1000+ dollars for an aftermarket bumper. So I picked up welding for the first time to make my own. It's not perfect and I need to make some modifications to it down the line, but it does what it needs to do.

Be very careful with that hitch if it's just welded flat to the bumper. The welds don't look bad but there is a lot of force on that one spot that can cause issues. Good job though
