B&M Fabrications Sneak Peek

[B&M Fabrications]

Couple quick pics for the new bumper for the Pro-Ride chassis from Haydays here. Bumper utilizes the same top bumper that we currently offer and adds additional protection under the front of the belly pan. Lower mount securely attaches to the lower part of the bulkhead. More info after haydays. Come stop and take a gander at it if you are out here.

Closed this thread and started a new one.

question

Dumb question I know but does bumper attach thru skid plate to the chasis?

 

[scotts-doo]

nevermind

I saw the other pic you have and could see you had the bumper attached over the skid plate protector. Looks great.

What is the price and availability?

What is the price and availability?

Don't make me get the "Let me google that for you" out.

 

[B&M Fabrications]

This will bolt through the skid plate to the bulkhead. It does not just attach to the plastic in the belly pan. I cannot post price on here since I am not a paid vendor. Availability will be a month out or so. Going to the New Hampshire grass drags and am planning to have some there for these.

BM...

From a previous post of mine.

how do you plan on attaching the lower leg to the bulkhead?

It would be great if you could utilize the bolt in the middle bottom of the bulkhead with some sort of "U" bracket aft and some thing that ties into the fwd area without modifying the pan.

That middle bolt is surrounded by a pocket that would give good strength to the junction and distribute load on the bulkhead as well.

Are your top mounts in internal configuration still the same as before with the mount location and cross tube from side to side near the upper mount??

.

 

[B&M Fabrications]

Top will utilize all of the same pieces that the existing one uses. (Cross bar, tabs that mount to the bulkhead) Lower attachment point will be two through bolts into the belly pan where there are two casting bosses in the bottom, there is 5/16 to 3/8 thick material there. We feel that attachment point still gives this bumper a break away point but also significantly stronger that just the upper bumper.

I grab a couple pictures of the lower mounting tomorrow when I pull the sleds back out of the trailer.

Is this the spot (RED) of the bulkhead you mount into on the bottom of the bulkhead?

What size fasteners are you using there?

Drill and tap... or through bolt with nut behind?

Pull pipe to install?

.

 

[B&M Fabrications]

That is the spot, through bolt with nuts, pipe needs to come out just like it does with the other bumper to get at the belly pan rivets on top where it exits the body.

Thanks for all the information. I've been looking at many styles and brands of bumpers but none seem to have all the things I'm looking for in one package. This seems to be the ticket.

Nice work.

 

[tbeaton]

see you in nh.

Heck, mount it to the table if it makes better photos.

 

[B&M Fabrications]

I'll get them tomorrow for you guys. Been too busy to get the sleds out of the trailer. Phones been going crazy lately and we're just trying to keep up.

I suppose there's no way to add that new piece onto one of your original bumpers is there? I've ran your first front bumper for two years now and really like it, but I love the looks of this design!
