    SMB - New bumper options from CBI Off Road Fab

    They are not the ones that you are used to. They don't have winch mount accommodations, just storage. They also need refurbishing. You are welcome to make an offer and I will consider it but they will most likely go to a friend building a similar vehicle.

    SMB - New bumper options from CBI Off Road Fab

    Flat plates with stamp holes on top make for sure footing. Plate on the ends make for better transitions and added strength. Not the best option for weight savings but it's something different and the plate will reinforce the tube. I like aluminum but I don't think it's the best material for...

    SMB - New bumper options from CBI Off Road Fab

    My wife and I recently acquired an 03' Sportsmobile EB50. It had Aluminess bumpers that were supposedly one of the original prototypes. While I like their products, they didn't meet our needs and were due for replacement. CBI had done a lot of work on my 11' 4Runner, creating a custom rear...

    It just makes it more exciting! It did put a downer on lunch but other than that we didn't mind it. Certainly made the obstacles more challenging.

    I appreciate all the compliments. As stated at the beginning. I can't take all the credit as it is merely a blend of what others have done.

    We went down a branch from the main Kane Creek trail. The whole trail has been pretty washed out, much tougher than I remember it being last year. It was still beautiful and perhaps my favorite Moab trail. One of our group members didn't make it... Just kidding, but that gives you an idea of...

    Didn't have a choice, it was the only thing between us and dry land. No checking like we should have but it made for a great time until the taco got stuck. But an unforgettable experience overall.

    I appreciate the compliments and am glad that you are enjoying it. I've done a few and this is by far my favorite and most versatile build. I ran the tank as dry as I dared, filled it up with 40.1 gallons. I got 582 mile out of that liquid gold, equating to 14.52MPG. I figure I could have...

    Got the factory backup cam mounted and working. The perspective is less than perfect since you can't see the bumper or corners, but it's better than nothing. I'll make a cone to get the right angle and help set the spare when putting it back on and taking it off. Where there's a will...
