American short course style rear bumper

[asc6000]

Not to worried about getting hit from behind but knowing a few big tumbling crashes would mangle the rear of the $$$$ body....
I went to the LHS and picked up a couple parts, I have no idea what truck they are for, they just looked right.


fabbed an upper mount


modified the lower mount


bolted the top in


bolted the lower


and viola ! a big ass rear bumper, save the body and no need for rear weights


It's not fully sorted, I need to heat the lower mount to flatten it so it fits more snugly against the chassis and countersink the chassis along with some proper screws, find some better material for the upper fabbed piece and take a bit more care making it, and the whole upper and lower is a bit "tweaked" some heat in the right places and some gentle massaging should make it near perfect. Please disregard the shitty prototype gear dirt guard.
