Glad everyone likes it. I'm loving it, and it will be available soon via SA. Also he is making more items for the XK platform.
Bumper turned out great, now we need one for the wk platform!
some minor fitting of the skid & the bumper is left and then it will be ready to be line x'd. Also the locking setup for the winch compartment door needs to be fab'd up, that will be done on the next dry day off we get here in the PNW.

Thx guys, I love it as well.
Here is some specs you might be wanting on it. The bumper & skid weighs in about 100 lbs. The Winch cradle & a winch with 85 ft of cable weighs about the same. With the OME HD setup I do not even feel it. Its also about 1/2" farther out than OEM bumper.
I will be taking the bumper off on the next dry day to drill a few drain holes in the winch cradle, it appears to be pooling water there from the rain. I will take some pictures of the winch cradle at this time. This is what you learn from R&D testing as everyone knows. Will be taking it offroad within the next few weeks for testing. If we find any weak spots we will correct it before it is available to the public, this one will not fall off. A friend of mine on Camano Island has trees on his property that I can hook up with a tree strap, that will allow me to drag the XK with the brakes applied. As well as testing the d-rings. Promise to take videos.
