Don't know who makes the one on Big Blaze, but there is a review of http://4x4iron.com/ bumpers on CK5.com.
Also, I've seen a few F350's around the area with http://www.roadarmor.com/ bumpers. It is a Seattle area company.

It was Road Armor that made the bumper. I booked marked it the day that episode aired. They don't have that exact model that Stacey used anymore. Seems that they have upgraded it, changed it to have 4 driving lights and added a different push bar thingy.

Blaze's Bumper
THANKS 86...I missed that particular show and never found any info on it on the website.I'll check into it and see what they have now. I figured since that was a newer k5 than my '70 I probably couldn't get the exact one anyway.THANKS AGAIN

Burt4x4 has a bumper from http://www.kenmtn.com/html/wincher.asp.
I'm tempted to use something similar on my 69. Here's a pic of Burt4x4's sweet K5 with that bumper.

That Bumper on Burts4x4 looks to be a Warn bumper. Not very beefy, But I do like the look.
Offroad Design makes one I like... The first pic is Off road design and the second one is something I got off of here..

NOW we're talking BIG & BEEFY H/D bumpers. Thanks guys. I wanted something like these bumpers to fit the atitude of my '70 K5. A stock or wimpy bumper just won't work. Now I just need to check them all out and figure out which one I like the best.I had a SMITTYBILT 3" tubular bumper on my CJ7 but they don't build one anymore for my '70 K5.THANKS AGAIN......and keep the photos coming if there are anymore different bumpers out there.

THANKS GUYS.....These are all cool but has anyone seen or have a picture of a 3" tubular double bar grill ? I use to have one but haven't seen one for my ol' '70 K5. I would like to see one before I make up my mind on one of these others.

Hey gang, been off line for a week or two
Yup mine is not the flimsy Warn but one of the first KMA bumpers made back in 99 http://www.kenmtn.com/ I have no idea what he is making nowa days. I have modified mine a lil bit too, added gussets under the winch mounting plate. So far the bumper has been great. I have smashed it, dinged it, crunched it, smacked it, etcc... it just stays put like a good bumper should Best of luck Burt
