So on top of getting a 3d printer and learning it, started learning to play with CAD. Found a bumper on thingiverse that I made a ton of changes to (along with help from SM in fixing the original file problem).
Took the light bar out of the the club 5 bumper, the hole for the fairlead goes all the way through I just need to deal with the KR skid then I can out a winch. Lots of other changes to make fit.
Then designed it to use the factory bumper mount design. But the rods are separate pieces held in by screws in the bumper. So if I snap one, can print more (already have 2 spares printed already) instead of an entire bumper.
A few tweaks to make, like the light pod holes somehow I changed something after I expanded them to size of the light pods I have, which brought them down 1.5mm, so pods won't fit.
Get put through the paces tomorrow, see how it holds up. Kind of want to try and mod the KR skid plate so it is set back a little further but I'll see how she does.
Next up is rear bumper system.
Also have a new clear body so I can redo some things, SM printed the kr light pods and such for me so those will go on the new body. This one is going "how my 1:1 would be built if I had unlimited funds" since he printed an exact 1/10 scale hard body for me (next build).
