webbjeepxj Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 Saw this at the PA Jeep Show a while back. I want one for my MJ bed trailer. I think it looks freaking hot, and functional. Its a compartment for storing stuff, but built into the bumper. Anyone know another company that makes these? ...... the Bent Bumper guys are out of business.
jimoshel Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 In the 50's JC Whitney sold square bumpers with storage compartments. Haven't seen any since.
mkbruin Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 What would you keep in that, other than water allowing it to rust from the inside-out?
DJM/78 Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 See now I was thinking it would be nice to have a roller ramp built in for my bikes . Trying to get a 380 lb bike in a 6" lifted truck isn't fun on skimpy ramps .
jteckmann Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 What would you keep in that, other than water allowing it to rust from the inside-out? Looks pretty practical to me. Depending on how big the compartment is, you could store tow straps/recovery gear, trailer hitches, jack/handle, etc. If it was well designed, had some drain holes in it, I don't see how rust would be any more of a problem than with a standard steel bumper (especially if you treated the inside with a coat of POR-15 or spray-on bedliner)
jimoshel Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 It was a great place to store a sheepherder (Hi Lift) jack.
Darren Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 In the 50's JC Whitney sold square bumpers with storage compartments. Oh yeah, I remember that.
