d2 front winch bumpers

[Howski]

it doesn't look bad although the squared off corners and the set up of the winch tray kind of smell like bottorf. sure as hell hope they're not made by bottorf

 

[fall out]

Lets start by saying these are not "BOTTORF". we ran into the same problems as everyone else with him.

rlc does make these bumpers for us. the recovery points can be moved with no problem i am sure. the recovery points are plug welded.

If you guys are in lagrange ky please stop in and check them out!!!!!!!

The comments are welcome and some changes can be made, like I said price starts at 550. The winch tray was designed so you could add a winch without cutting out grill. These are made to fit all disco 2's.

Just a side note for those who are interested, we are going to start fab on a disco 1 rear bumper soon. So if there is something you all would like please feel free to comment or add suggestions. we are a week or two out from that.

For the guys that come through lagrange Shoot us an email or pm on here so we can have the truck there when you stop in.

For those wanting to go to the quarry plan to stay the day. Its like spring break there....

also trying to get a time in the near future for a trips to interlake and turkey bay, if interested give us a shout!!!!!

Ok you want our trust explain how nate fucked you and we'll talk because word of mouth threw friends gos alot further than saying there not Bottorf shit because that design had his name all over it

If these are made by RLC, they are top notch! I've seen Lukes rear D1 bumper and it is very high quality and the welds are second to none!

 

[capri_auto]

look good to me, x2 on moving recovery points, good price too.

 

[fall out]

ok jakd did he "fuck us" as you say it.......No we did not get fucked!!!!!!

we ordered stuff and it took months to get if it even came at all!!!!!!! Ive seen this complaint from a lot of people.

This is not his design at all......

I must say those brush bars and winch tray look awful similar to the shitty bumper i have.

 

[JAKD-UP]

Same light tabs too

I might stop by there the weekend of the 30th, I think we are going to ride up to the Dirty Turtle in bedford but taking the four wheelers. ATV rider mag is having some big thing that weekend.


Yeah Blake, the quarry used to be closed to Louisville Dive Shop, thats where they took people to do their check out dives, but like he said, its a party every day of the week up there apparently. You can't drink in the water and you have to have a float.

Hey JAKD-UP,
I have been around this Land Rover board for about 10-12 years. I don't say a lot, but I do read the post. Most of the older guy know me and know I won't BS them. These are not Bottorf Bumpers. These are made right here in Kentucky. Please give me a call and I will be glad to talk with you about this bumper or any other products we are going to make.
Thanks
Nathan

Listen I'm a kid that respects my elders and people with more knowledge than me.. you could be the coolest guy and nicest guy in the world and I'd love to meet and wheel with ya someday....but do you see where some of our worries come from like I said I'd love to be proven wrong on this nate has taken more from me than anybody he was like family to me at one point so excuse the me being a fuck about this but I wouldn't put anything past nate to try and squeez more from the public before he just vanishes and anybody that deals with him is just as crooked....but if not I have to ptoblem sayin sorry and looking like a ass

 

[nathan]

I have had more than my share of problems with Bottorf. We parted company a while back. I had several thousand dollars out and finally got my money back. I'm not sure what you are looking for with respects to bumpers. The only thing I can say is, these are my own design and NOT BOTTORF BUMPERS. Yes, I would enjoy wheeling with you anytime. Not sure if your close to Kentucky, but maybe we can find a spot and meet. If you have time give me a call.

Thanks
Nathan

How close are you to MO

Here is a link to a thread on pirate about the rear bumper build on my buddy Luke's truck.

You are not gonna find ANY bottorf junk with welds anywhere close to this!

No I'm not trying to pimp Platinums stuff or RLC, but the guy is local and makes good stuff so I'm showing my support.

Like I said, I'll head out there one of these days and see it myself and take some pics and post them if no one else does.

St Louis is about a four and a half hour drive. A VERY boring drive....

 

[nathan]

I'm about 300 from St Louis. There is a place called Interlake OHV in Indiana we are trying to set up a trip. It's located on I-64 at Lynnville, IN.
