|  Scale Tube Accessories Hello all, welcome to DH Fab. I've been working on some scale tube accessories for a little while now. I'm starting out with a limited number of products, but will be adding to them in the coming months. Most everything I build is .160 solid steel rod, mig welded. Sometimes 1/8" will be used for accent pieces. So far my products include the winch front bumper with light mounts, sliders, and redneck rear bumper. These have all been patterned using a Clodbuster body(rear bumper is purposely not as wide). I just got a Hilux body and will be coming out with some items specifically for it soon. Also will be getting a Tamiya Jeep body in the near future. I've built these so far with the idea of easily installing on a SCX10 chassis, however they could be fit onto many standard scale chassis.   I'm making them without holes drilled, as you can adjust their fit to your body application depending on where you drill the holes. I'm going to be building these in runs of 5 for the most part. So now the most important thing.....pricing. Front Winch Bumper   Sliders (pair) Clodbuster on SCX10 Width  Sliders (pair) Toyota Hilux on SCX10 width (no pic yet) Crawler Rear Bumper Wrap Toyota Hilux  All prices are shipped in the US, I will happily ship internationally for exact cost. Please pm me your email address and what you want to buy, and I will email you a paypal invoice. Dimensions are: Front Winch Bumper Overall width 6 15/16" Inside width between the tips 6 1/2" Sliders (Clodbuster Body) Overall length 6 5/8" Distance from frame to outside of tube 2 5/16" Sliders (Toyota Hilux Body) Overall Length 6 5/8" Distance from frame to outside of tube Crawler Rear Bumper Type 1 Top of the bumper outside to outside 6 7/16" Length of mounting brackets from bumper 2 7/8" Outside width of mounting bracket 2 13/16" Crawler Rear Bumper Type 2 (wrap) Inside width between wrap tubes 7" Outside width of wrap tubes 7 3/8" Length of mounting brackets from bumper 2 7/8" Outside width of mounting bracket 2 13/16" I'll be coming out with new items as I have time to make them. I do this on the side after work and on my days off, so it takes me a little while. I'm not taking any custom work orders for now, until I can get a stock of items built up. Thanks for your interest.           Last edited by @tw!ll; 11-29-2010 at 12:30 PM. |

| Time for an update. My wife and daughter have both been sick and I haven't had much time in the garage. Got out there today and got some stuff done. I finished 5 front bumpers, and 4 pairs of sliders. 2 of the bumpers and 1 of the sliders are sold already. I also got time to put the Hilux body on the chassis. Turns out clod and Hilux bodies are almost the same dimensions. The front bumper fits perfectly. The sliders are the exact right dimensions other than how far from the chassis they need to be spaced. So I'll be building the sliders to fit the Hilux soon. I added pics to the first post. So as far as now I have available to ship wed: 2 Redneck Rear Bumpers 3 Clodbuster Sliders 3 Front Winch Bumpers While building the front bumpers I came up with a couple minor changes. The only one that's obvious is I added a loop to the top of the stinger for winch hooks. I also bent the stinger up a little more so it's not sticking forward so far. I'll get pics of them tomorrow after the paint dries. |
