Those are not rocks, that is the first Hummer only dealership in the country with a test track. Our group was allowed to have fun that day. I would also like to mention that I did climb the H1 only 21in veritical step several times.
I am glad you like the pics.

Dear LRC,
So you went with the Road Armor winch bumper and the SMA HD brushguard? Interesting combination. Do you know which winches will work with your bumper? Brands, capacities, electric vs. hydraulic?

I do like that bumper. I am wondering how it effects (or is it affects) the approach angle; apparently not too badly if you did the 21 inch vertical step. Do you have a lift or bigger tires?
What is the difference between effects and affects?

I actually bought the bumper and grill guard used from another forum member. He did quite a bit of custom fab work to make the two pieces work together but the final product works great!
Now I just have to get a winch!!
The bumper does a very good job of preserving the approach angle. I am running 37' BFG MTs with no lift. They are great tires!
effect is passive or caused by something else Ex- Bipolar disorder (hummerman, Spidey) has certain side effects.
affect is an action verb. Ex- A president can affect change.

The bumper is designed to maintain the stock approach angle. Yes I have 37" tires with no lift. 37's fit perfect.

Effect = result, outcome
It is a noun defining an OUTCOME (caused by some action).
Affect = change, modify in some way.
It is a verb defining an ACTION (which causes some outcome).
Hopefully my writing this will AFFECT your syntax and cause the desired EFFECT.
I hope this doesn't sound arrogant, just hoping to answer your question.

Wow, there are some smart fellers here. Those were the best explanations I’ve heard yet. Thank you. I had been wondering about it for some time.
Reading this thread has affected my views about a winch bumper. The effect is that I may seriously consider installing one. How was that? Oh, and when it’s time to replace the tires… 37’s.

I wasn't going to post any pics of the new bumper until I had some new synthetic rope in it, but I want you guys to be able to have another choice.  |

WOW DRTY that is a nice job. Even if I am a Mall Queen driver I would pick that bumper over a whole lot of other bumpers for an off road rig. That sucker looks sharp.
Well when the value of the H2's go in the dumper I'll buy My second H2 to use to make an off roader with and I would be happy to have that setup. If I have a Mall Queen and a
Dirt Queen would that raise Me up a little on the scab scale? 
Good Job!!

If you really really really have to have chrome I'll look into it just for you. But no flames. I've got to draw the line somewhere. |

Aw, that's cute Dirty. Its like a little bumperette.
I liked it from the begining. The design is simple and functional so I guess it all comes down to the price point. If you can compete with the Warn, you've got a winner.
Do you just hack out the middle section of the existing bumper or does it come completely assembled (with a core exchange)?
Congrats on getting it out to market. I'm sure the R & D on something like this was a real bear. I hope it sells like hotcakes. How are you going to brand it? DrtyFAB? |
