Smittybuilt says their new bumpers are due out by the end of July
Had the Atlas bumpers on my JK - waiting on these, they have pictures up on their site and I really like the look it will be good to see them on a JL

I got tired of waiting on DV8 to come out with a bracket or bumpers specifically designed for the JL, so I ordered the LoD Signature Series shorty with skid plate from Quadratec. Said there's a 4-5 week lead time so I don't expect it any time soon. Ah well...let the waiting begin.

Bought the ICI Magnum RT bumper from Extreme Terrain, received it in <48 hrs. The local Jeep club and I swapped it out while at a cruise night meet and greet in about an hour. Longest part was removing the plastic stock one and getting the wiring harness for the OEM fogs out. (Also I didn’t have my impact gun which woulda saved 40 min) Have yet to install the fogs and winch (which I’m doing tonight) but will post pics once they are in

I have to wonder, the price seems almost too good. As my father always said "you get what you pay for".

Plus only one 5 star review... I would be careful.
Lots of people have them around here. Some last some some rust right away.

Has anyone been able to move the sensors in the back (stock) bumper to an after market one?

Two questions:

1. Any other Aluminum bumpers right now besides:

Rockhard
Savvy
Genright

2. Do some of the bumper designs limit tire size? I noticed someone mentioning 33's but no larger. How do I tell the maximum tire size? I haven't noticed that on manufacturer website for the few I've looked at.

I love the idea of light weight since this thing isn't exactly a ball of fire in the performance category, but the price is staggering!

I do like the looks of the Rockhard bumpers at least. Don't care for the stubby designs of the other two
