The rear bumper started out as a 6x6 square tube with 5/16 thick wall. I split it in two leaving me a top and back section of the bumper. Used a few pieces of same material to make the frame mounts. The shackle hanger is 1.25in thick steel plate with a 1in hole through it. I cut it so that there is more material behind the bumper. So if for some strange reason my welds broke, it is impossible for it to pull out of the bumper.
The window bars are made from 1.75 in DOM. They are mounted through the body, used a piece of tubing to prevent it from crushing, with another plate inside to spread the load out.
