Definitely . We should get together and throw some ideas back & forth. The plan is to build a winch bumper this Spring & it won't be a internal mount because of the change in bumper-frame position with the body lift.

I've been thinking a bumper similar to this:



Our Russian friend had some great ideas and IMO just poorly implemented them. My frame sits below the front cladding, so I could build a bumper similar this Russian VX without cutting into the cladding as much. I'm still not sure on putting the tube bumper into the design.

I would like to look into other designs if you have some ideas. It would be a challenge to make an ARB style bumper for the VX that wouldn't look like Marlin's old frankenbumper .
