new front bumper......
« on: August 11, 2006, 07:46:08 PM »
so i am going to get gas the other day and some guy runs the red light and removes the front end of my truck >:(. i am very lucky because if i was 12" further into the intersection he would have hit the tires and fender and spun me around. he was going at least 40 mph so i guess i was lucky that day.

glad you are safe, now call Shrokworks and get his sweet Sidekick winch bumper with the insurance money - cheaper than a factory repair, and safer ...

Wow!  Did ya have to change your drawers after that?  Glad that's all he got.  Thats a good looking Kick and will look even better with an offroad bumper!  Sharp tires & wheels!

Oouch!!.
It was a good thing you still had a stock bumper.
That ShrockWorks bumper would have held on, all the way down the street.

Good thing you're all right man!!!! Is the frame still straight and does it drive alright other then the lack of a front bumper?
I welded a 2" x 4" by 1/4" wall rectangular tube across the frame rails and then made my own steel bumper, really affordable and strong. Eventually I will cut a hole in the bumper and mount a winch to the 2" x4" tube.
