Post by: da_tub on March 29, 2006, 09:01:25 PM: he guys need a little help from you,, i'm building my front bumper for my sidekick, one kinda like the calmini winch bumper, and i was just wondering if any one had some pics of the back side of one, attachment points or extra bracing for the winch, any help would be much appreciated, figured i can build the bumper much cheaper then pay the price and exchange rate for a newone..( 8)

This plate then runs down and attaches to the round crossmember with some u-bolts. If you find the refernce that Tom mentioned I think that you can see it in the pictures.

Good Luck!!
