Try to figure a ballpark price with and without winch mounts and maybe add the weld it yourself option in there to save on shipping for us USA guy's and lets see if we can get a group buy going.

I'd definitely be interested Mudchild, but price will be the deciding factor. I guess the number you could sell would have a big affect on the price.

Yes I total understand and for me interst and or commitment is the deciding factor as to what the final cost will be. The more people that want them the better pricing I can offer. For me to make one off stuff is just not worth it.
Make the price reasonable and I'll send 50% of said price up front and once built the other 50% will follow.
If you build it before hand at a reasonable price with pics I'll send full payment up front! I want a front tube/hitch bumper.

Totally agree.  The GV/Tracker has now been around long enough that the aftermarket demand for "parts" is growing and will continue to grow and (I believe) will shortly out-strip demand for Sammies and the 1st Gen trucks.  Every business has a cycle and when the older trucks start rusting and disappearing from the road we'll drive what's available.  The stock suspension modifications have been pretty well covered by a few individuals and companies like OME, Calmini, Jeff, Mudchild and Mastercraft(?).  Affordable aftermarket bumpers are still kinda wide open as Calmini and ARB appear to be the dominant venders for heavy expensive bumpers not sure about Zor... but the point is bumpers front AND rear are still wide open as is someone making and marketing diff drops and aftermarket A-arms and making them available individually.  He who markets the most of these parts and gets there first with a quality, affordable product... will dominate the 2nd generation truck after market sales, I think.  Sales on parts for these trucks will run for about ten years then something else will come up.
'02 Chezuki Tracker with a 2 Liter and 5spd.  It works for me!!!
