Winch bumper w/ 12K winch for 1987 Suburban. (pics)

[munepit]

I installed my Diy4x B-52 Bumper Center. It includes mounts for the body mount and leaf spring. This bumper will let you use longer front springs. There are (2) 9 1/2 ton WLL shackles and a XRC12 winch.

Thats pretty slick, any plans for the sides?

Thanks! Kert at Dix4x does some awesome fab work.

Yes, I plan to add some tube on the sides. I dont know when, I have a ton of other things to it first. I have a lot of parts waiting to go on.

Thanks again!


ps, There are 22 bolts that hold this to the frame!!!

The only thing is that I would either drop this down about 4 inches, or add some 40s to the rig, from the front it looks huge and the tires aren't filling the wheel wells. Also the front DL angle looks pretty miserable already, I can't imagine what its like when the suspension droops out.

I run 42" TSLs (Grooved). I do plan to lower it a few inches. Those are 38s in the pic. I jump this all the time. No problems with the driveline. Just a couple broken shock mounts.

In the video I jump it pretty good, and at the end is where I hit the cars.
I blew a bead on the 42s and ran home for the 38s.

Enjoy.

His products are second to none. His customer service is top notch. You can call and talk to him anytime. I have a lot of his stuff on my rig(bumper, Front dana 60 diff cover with hydro assist mount, shock mounts, rear pinion protection, 14 bolt disc conversion brackets) I will be doing a shackle fip in the rear soon. I like his work a lot!!
