First off, let me apologize for having neglected this for so long. I have been a little busy lately with school, work, and getting married. Although getting married was well worth the neglect.
Despite all of this lack in time, i have found a little time for a project I've been planning out in my head for a few years now. It was a simple project, but for whatever reason i kept putting it off. All in all, what i wanted so badly to do was to weld a bracket on to my existing bumper (The Decapitator) and hook up some off-road lights on the front of Manti.
I will post pictures soon, but let me tell you how the project went. All it took for materials was a 3-foot piece of 1/2" angle iron, some sand paper, and a can of spray paint. The tools required were a good welder, a small grinder, a drill, and a small circular saw.
All i did was measure how high up on the bumper i wanted to put my bracket. From there, I cut my angle iron at the short (4") length i wanted, cutting the sides at a 45-degree angle. After welding those initial pieces to my bumper, i measured the space between them, and cut my back piece. From there all i had to do was grind down my welds a bit, drill my holes where i wanted my lights to mount, sand the entire bumper, and then paint it.
It was a very simple project, and I'm not sure why it took me so long to do it, but I'm extremely happy with the results. I'm one step closer to Moab next April!
