Thinking of going with a Rockhard aluminum bumper and wondering what the weight saving might be.
Thanks

Pretty sure the bumper is like 85#, not including the skid plate.

I don’t think so. I’ve had mine off several times, I’d guess closer to 60#.

Remove the end caps to save some weight ;)

Being a "lowered winch mount" also gives you less obstructed airflow to your grille. How much less? 30%! Our lowered winch frees up 30% more of your grille space compared to a "flush" top mounted winch plate.

Components
Integrated into front bumper is a tapered down and back section of 1/4" steel to protect your expensive and vulnerable Sway Bar Disconnect motor and crash bar. This skid plate also includes 2 square laser cut provisions for a Hi-Lift Jack foot to lift your Wrangler.

The Rock Hard aluminum bumper at 37# includes the skid plate and winch mount plate. Pretty huge weight savings if you added a big winch and plate.
