What do you want fabricated for your VX?

[pbkid]

hey, he could have also been refering to the grill guard that Tone used to sell. I believe his proto-type was pictured on a dragon, just FYI.

Not my style, as most of you know, but i guess some could like it

i always though something similar to the bumper on my Runner, but form fitted for the VX would be amazing.

now i just need a VX to test on
any takers?

Jon???

I think that brushguard ended up on a Proton that sold last year. I didn't realize that it was the famous Tone concept unit. I recognize it from the tube diameter reduction on the center bar.

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 .

oh i think it would be do-able on the VX, it just would take some time and design. Mainly, it couldnt stick out very far or it just detracts from the smooth front, it would have to be pretty flush with the front of the truck.

luckily our radiator sits back a ways so you probably have room for a winch even with a flush bumper

maybe some time this summer we will get together a few weekends and fab something up?

ps, hows the rear door looking?

Sounds good Jack.

The rear door looks great & has been on the VX for a few weeks. Things are finally calming down from the holidays and I should have time to take some pics & post them this weekend.
