Hi Everybody- I joined HF a few months ago and began reading old posts to familiarize myself with the ins/outs as I searched for my manual 5 speed H3. As luck would have it, I recently stumbled on a local one owner, '07 and scooped it up. The seller was a great guy and kept every service receipt since new. It came with a Boulder Accessories heavy duty bumper w/ brush guard and 9,500 lb Mile Marker winch. The extent of any wheeling I have planned is mild overlanding to mtn biking trailheads and campsites, so I don't think I'll be needing the capability of the BA unit. As you can see, It's heavily corroded but solid, and I've not tested the winch, so I can't speak to its functionality. The OEM bumper was included in the sale, so with my plans to revert back to stock, I'll offer the BA bumper/winch to any member who wants it. I'm located in Milford, CT, and any interested parties should be willing to come to CT, have the know how to remove it, and bring the needed tools. I'll include the winch controller but not the fog lights or bumper hardware which I'll need to use for the OEM bumper. If you're local to the NE area and could put this NLA bumper to use, PM me. Glad to finally be part of the h3 community.

Welcome.

The BA just needs to be taken apart, dropped at a local media/sand blaster, add a dab of slick filler and sandable primer, finished and re-assembled. Been there. I already have one and if I was in the NE, I would be stopping by this weekend with beer.

Mighty generous of you, you could easily get $250 for it with the winch working or not.

Thanks Doc- I got the truck for a good price so I figured I'd pay it forward and give it to a forum member who could use it, but if no takers I'll put it on CL for a tank or two of premium... No garage space to store it, so its gotta go!
