I posted this a while ago and I've learned a lot since then. It is good to have your bumpers secured with big bolts but...
as long as the wooden backing of the bumper sits flush with your chassis, the bumper mounts only have to hold it in place. Any force imparted on the bumper should be translated to the chassis, not to the mount.
We use 1/4 inch aluminum angle. We may even downgrade that to save on weight.
