Looking at the pictures. I guess if the D-rings aren’t triggering the sensors the trailer plug probably won’t either?

I really like the tow plug provision. It’s very streamlined and it’s up and out of the way for rock crawling. Does the back up sensor have an issue when a trailer plug is actually connected?
Sure it would but if it is connected then so would a trailer so you would disable that while towing.

If you plug in a trailer connector for a bike rack does it shut off the sensors automatically due to the system assuming there is a trailer?

We turn off the back-up sensors when a trailer is connected. Otherwise it would just go off non-stop.

Love this bumper, I would order it now if the plate was integrated into the bumper like the stock JL. Relocating on the spare tire just looks like an afterthought. Any chance of coming out with a version 2? I live in Michigan and like to support local. Thanks.

Any chances of a slant fastback carrier in 2019 like your JK model?

I don't for-see us making a version like that. That could change, but we don't have anything like that planned currently.

Yes, we'll be working on that as soon as we finish the tire carrier and have a Bestop Slantback top to work off of.

Looks awesome! Do they have a front bumper to match with provisions for a wench?

Yes, our Pro Series Front Bumper comes with a Fairlead Plate to mount a winch.


Thank you,

Nice bumper and considering purchasing. But I have stock jl wheels and k02s but would like to run 35s in near future. What is the weight? and what spacer is needed? Wish this had a dip for tire carriers.

I hate that bumper manufacturers insist cutting into the bumpers with their logos. Looks like crap, harder to clean and another area that is susceptible to corrosion. Nice product, too bad you defaced it.

It weighs about 75lbs. To run a 35" you'll need an aftermaket carrier, or our Stock Tire Carrier Riser kit.

Thank you,
