Does anyone have pics of the rear bumper mounts for a 87 Samurai?
Does anyone know what the hitch rating of some of the aftermarket bumpers is?
I am going to make a new bumper but need pics of the mounts.
Thanks

Do you mean how it is mounted to the frame or do you just want some pictures of bumper design?
Instead of building a bumper a really good substitute to save some money is the Do it Yourself bumper from Rocky Road (http://www.rocky-road.com/zukbump.html (http://www.rocky-road.com/zukbump.html)). You still need to mount the lights and make some mounts, but they are a great base to work from. The two Sammy's in my club both use them in the back.

Where I just made one from Square Stock and a trailer light kit. :)

I need to see the frame mounts / how the bumper is mounted to the frame.
I did see one DIY kit that was about $50 & just needs welded. I was going to get some info on it after the 1st.
I snowplow with my Sami and am thinking about making a back plow for it. :)

If you can wait a couple of day's I can try to get you a couple of pic's of the rear bumper to frame mount for you.
PM me to remind me as I am in the middle of redoing my bathroom and fighting with the x about my boy. So I may be busy and forget to snap those pic's.
