Putting a feeler out there..
Need an idea what its worth too. I am thinking about selling my roll cage, front bumper and rear bumper in the coming months. My roll cage was custom built by me. It is an 8 point cage. Fits under the factory hard top with about a half inch of clearance most places around it to maximize head space. If you've seen my bronco you know it is pretty serious. I can post pictures later this week. Could probably use a new coat of paint is all. My front bumper is quite new, only one wheeling trip on it so a few scratches. This is my new design front bumper that looks unlike any others out there. My rear bumper would go cheap. Pretty basic, scratched and a little bend but still very strong. So what are they worth and is there anyone interested?

Re: Putting a feeler out there..
Bought my first roll cage with seats and seat mounts etc for $900. Sold it later for pennies, maybe $200. Got took when I bought it, but was a newbie, then didn't get out of it nearly what I needed. I don't recall what yours looks like, but I am sure it's nice! Post a pic and we can go from there.

Re: Putting a feeler out there..
A nice pre-bend (not welded) Family cage from Extreme Manufacturing in Iowa (?) is around $700.00 shipped plus the welding time once it arrives. So figure around $800-900. Your cage would be worth at least that much especially since it is an 8-point vs. a 6-point and totally custom. A used cage isn't really used unless it has been rolled then it is worth-less. I think it would be worth close to what they would sell new. Any buyer would expect to sand and spray paint or powdercoat so that is not a big deal. I have not seen the cage but $800-900 is close.
A Protofab Pre-runner front bumper is $480.00 plus shipping and your bumper is cooler than anything Protofab ever produced. I would say $400.00 on the Front Bumper. Scratches are not a big deal as new buyer will want to paint it their color anyway. BTW - Wish I needed a front bumper.
The Rear Bumper is likely worth around $150.00 but I haven't seen it or the damage so that is subjective.
You make the baddest front bumper in the business - I am excited to see what you replace it with.

Re: Putting a feeler out there..
Be ready to provide a complimentary test-fit for a potential buyer. As I'm sure you know, these Broncos all all different and a cage that fits one may not fit another.
Pics of your stuff would be great. I haven't see it. Thanks.

Re: Putting a feeler out there..
I would say Chad is pretty darn close on his pricing for the cage. At least a place to start...
Front Bumper - I would ask for what similar ones are going for. Maybe say add $100 and the rear goes with...

Re: Putting a feeler out there..
I would be all over that cage if I had the funds for it. Really amazing work!

Re: Putting a feeler out there..
Any chance you would look to build a couple of additional cages for club members?
