Any one know of a “Safari” style bumper and brush guard? Something that looks looks like on the old land rovers without having a custom build. I haven’t found one that does’t look overly modern for what I am going for.

Have you looked for some used Smittybuilt tube bumpers? You can probably pick them up pretty cheap and have them sand blasted and powder coated if that's the style you're looking for.

Saw a brushguard from them years ago (not tube though I don’t think) and like many things should have just bought it then. No such luck finding currently.

Yeah. Something like that would be good. Looks like it works with the original bumper.

That's the bar that was on my '69 when I bought it. Yes, it bolts to the frame below the bumper. They're surprisingly common on the first gens. Keep scrounging on Craiglist and other places, bet you'll find one.(y)

Nice rig! That is very close to what I am picturing in my head. Unfortunately I have no fabrication or welding skills, so would have to get someone to do it for me. I am very interested in your snorkel set up. Which brand/model is it from? How did you modify the connections?

The snorkel connects thru the fender and into the ammo box with a k&m filterF1D76907-A108-4B14-B610-D619C7BFF822.jpeg

I'm hoping Shrockworks develops some front and rear bumpers for the Bronco.
