    Hi Fellow Jeepers
    I wanted to share a picture of my new rear bumper. I got it from Dirtworx .
    I am not connected to them in any fashion but wanted to say his craftsmanship is very nice and prices are reasonable.
    All bumpers are custom made.

    Bill, I also have one of Dirtworx bumper tire carrier. However if you add anything extra to it it gets a little wobbly.

    This bumper is going on my CJ3B.
    My poor old CJ5 needs lots of thing’s before I start worrying about bumpers for it.
    LOL

    Glad you were able to get return calls or whatever. We tried for 2 months as we had a couple customer vehicles we wanted to try them on and couldn’t get any response whatsoever. Ended up building them ourselves.

    Dirtworx is down the street from me last I checked. Never gotten to the point where I've been ready for one of his bumpers, but he's been making great stuff for a long time.

    Right on, you’ll be happy with it, they are well made but simple, rugged and a great value. I’ve had my dirworx for quite a while and really like it.

    My one suggestion would be to reinforce the mounting. Just bolting into the factory rear cross member will fail. That cross member by itself is not heavy/strong enough. There’s certainly different ways to do it but it would be good to get it bolted or welded into the frame rails.
