I've been doing some research to find a new bumper for my X and all the ones ive found don't interest me and/or are way to expensive... I have found a few but have hit a few road blocks...
First one I believe is custom the truck belongs to Odin member on Ronin. The second one will it fit...who knows. It could be made to fit, anything will fit with enough fab work, question is do you want to do that much work? You could always give it a shot. Xterror04 adapted a bumper from a Toyota to make it fit on his truck.
Past that you are fabbing one yourself, what I did, or find a local fabricator to make one to your specs.
I have a toyota 4runner bumper on mine... had to fab it up a bit so it would for though ... I would call calmini on that bumper.. I would think it wou ld be pretty close at least
if its gonna be custom, im gonna do i my self...I recently moved 1600 miles away from my welder and band saw (aka Grandpa)... so im gonna have to break down and atleast get my own welder...
minus the cost of the welder... rough cost of materials?
Mine was built using a JD2 Model 32 manual bender....but really any stand type manual or hydraulic bender will work. Keep an eye out for them used and they can be had for a fairly reasonable price.
I have talked to several people about building one like Odin's.. to get strong enough tubing, you will end up spending.. 500 at least.. that is for them to make it.. now for yourself? that just depends on your supplier.
It is costly compared to getting straight 20' sticks but you can get mandrel bent sections of tub in just about any material/diameter/bend radius. Would probably be cheaper than buying a tubing bender if you don't do this work very much.
Get a fab shop to build you one... Cheaper (think 50%) than the pre-built ones plus you can have features built in that you can't get with the Shrock/Calmini etc.
Don't know if it helps but the Calmini winch bumper for 98-00 frontiers and the winch bumper for 2000-2001 xterra have the same part number must be the same.
