Ok so I'm looking to make my own front and rear bumpers based on the Shrockworks Nissan Xterra Winch Bumper Bull Bar for the 2008 model and the Shrockworks Xterra Rear Bumper & Spare Tire Carrier / Swing Away Tire Rack also for a 2008 and the Shrockworks Gen2 Front Radiator Skid Plate. My only issue is I dont have the specs(measurements/angles/etc) for any so I can go buy my metal goods. I was wondering if anyone knows somewhere I can get the specs for these parts or has them and would be willing to give me the specs off theirs. Front bumper all i need is the bumper no upper tubing. Any help would be awesome, thanks in advance.

You will have to rely on another member measuring their bumper because I'm sure the actual design specs are copyrighted/trademarked whatever you want to call it. Honestly though, the best thing to me would be to design one that is uniquely your own. It takes more work and time but you'll enjoy having a bumper that no one else in the country can have. All you really need are your mounting point dimensions and then just let your imagination run from there.

thanks dude that is a good idea...I just like the style and design of the Shrockworks so thats what I wanted to base it off...like i dont want the upper tubes and really dont need the winch but i still think it would add to the agressiveness of the bumper I mean I would want to basically make the Shrockworks one, but cheaper and add some of my own touches to it (laser cuts of some stuff in the bumper etc.) but dont feel like paying 800 some dollars

looking at the pic the only measurements i think i would need would be the depth of the center (front to back) the height and width of the center two sections (the section with the winch opening and the angle section that goes back to the skid plate) and the same measurements of the end-most section on one side...i can basically do the rest from there...so if anyone who has a Shrock front bumper would be so kind as to get me those measurements i will be forever greatful...and ill need a lot off the rear if someone has the swingout tire rack but i understand if you dont want to get those measurements seeing as it is alot
