2 DOOR JL build/order discussions master thread

Correct, the bumper comes with the below:
https://www.extremeterrain.com/barricadeoy-series-aluminum-front-bumper-2018-jl.html

• Front Bumper
• 4mm Thick Aluminum Construction
• 5mm Thick Steel Winch Plate
• 10mm Thick D-Ring Mounts
• (2) 3/4" D-Rings Included
• Black Powder Coat Finish

So, the winch plate is included, and required as it is how the bumper and drings connect to the frame. Your Warn winch plate cannot be used with this bumper, you have to use the included winch plate. And yes, the bumper itself is way lighter than 54 pounds, in the video on that site, he picks the bumper up alone with 2 fingers, the 54 pounds is mostly the winch plate and drings, they are steel as well for recovery.

Nice looking and very reasonably priced. I wonder if anyone has figured out how to mount the Rubi fog lights? I really want to keep them.

I like that bumper too, esp the weight. I have halogens lights so maybe switching to a baja fog light of some sort would fit the bracket requirement without me fabing something

I don’t know much about the Rubi fog light bracket, but what happened to me was, they sent me a bumper for the JK instead of the JL. So, I had to get new fog lights, but Extreme took care of me. Bottom line is, if the Rubi fog lights you have now, is the same bracket as the JK, order the same bumper but for JK. Frame mounting was exactly the same. I just don’t know offhand, If the Rubi fog light mount is different from JK to JL. I just ordered new fog lights for the JK since I have a JK bumper.

MOJITO was taken so I went with a variant - MOHITO

Hmm... food for thought... I won’t put it ahead of a soft top however. You guys are DANgerous!!

Hope to head to NC in the mountains this weekend. Give my Nalah some fun time on the dirt roads! I absolutely CANNOT wait!!! First time out!!

As there is no "feeler" threads allowed in the "for sale" section I thought I'd pose the query here with you guys.

I like my steel bumpers as they look great and have removable end caps, but would really like some aluminum bumpers. With SEMA around the corner, I dare to get my hopes up that something will spark my interest.

That leaves me with the question: What are people paying for used front and rear OEM steel bumpers?

It was a $1295 option that may not have been the best money spent. Thoughts?

I'd take them for $1k including shipping, but that would be a lot of shipping...

Good morning all. Heading over the hill to that other state to spend the weekend in the El Dorado wine area. No Jeeps involved but some drinking may happen

Why would anybody feel the need to post in a Jeep fourm where they’re going over the weekend if it has nothing to do with jeeps this is Not Twitter or Facebook who cares.. Seriously who cares a lot of people are thinking it but I’m saying it. LOL
