Like the sliders, diff cover looks great, and the roof rack is making me second guess my maximus-3. Awesome build.

That bumper is huge. That has to be pushing 150 lbs without the winch. Looks like it blocks a lot of
Radiator flow, too... But I’ll bet it would win a fight against a deer.

Pics for reference on mine. I will say, considering the way it fits so flush with the front fender it’s got to be for the Rubicon only. I like the way it sits high and tight compared to say the Mopar steel bumper. I have no worries about not getting enough airflow to the radiator whatsoever.

looks good. at first i was thinking it would look way too big and bulky on a stock jl. how much sag in the front of the jl.

i do like the looks of the classic arb. i'm thinking of getting one, just havent pulled the trigger yet. do you notice and how bad is the extra weight on the front of the jl with the bumper and winch. how much of a sag you have on the front. is there a difference in the gas mpg.

Top shelf guys. ARB/OME has been making quality parts for Wranglers for years. You AEV guys waiting for bumpers should seriously consider these.
I just don’t like how the rear bumper #1 doesn’t incorporate rear sensors and #2 has no tire carrier. Also the edges on the AEV stuff just look like they line up so much better, but maybe it’s just my eye.

I think it would be too hard to tell due to the fact that the rig is already sitting a tad bit lower due to the rear LOD bumper with tire carrier, awning, etc. I'm not sure how much it weighs, but I put it on by myself. Once I have a bit more $$ to spend, I'll be getting a 2.5 MC lift and some 35's to finish off my add-ons

Ahhhh... Thanks! just saw this post after I tagged you in a post I created. Thanks for the pictures! Is there anything you don't like about the bumper? Or anything to point out which I haven't spoken about?

Nope, not at all. Very happy with my purchase :)

ARB/ OME might be my favorite aftermarket brand. Can’t wait to save up some coin to splurge on their products for my 2020 JLUR
