Looking to add a bull bar on my stock steel bumper, history in treads are from 2019 and wondering if there is anything newer I'm missing? NC

Both Warn and Mopar make them for the steel Mopar bumper. Pretty sure a few other companies as well.

If you google "bull bar JLWranglerforum" there are at least 3 threads from 2021 talking about them.

Once I found Maximus-3, I couldn't go with anything else. They utilize 2.5" tubing vs the typical 2", which in my opinion is more proportionate to the JL. I went with the SLP bull bar and the optional chassis reinforcement brackets. The finish is top notch and is a great match in both color and texture to the factory steel bumper.

Can you by chance give me a measurement on the distance from the top of the bumper to the bottom of the bull bar hoop. I have the KC Flex Era 4 lights and need to find a bar that clears them, but i don't want a really tall bar. I really like the look of the Maximus-3 bull bars but i'd hate to order it and have it not clear my lights.
Thanks

American Trail Products (ATP) also has one that looks similar to the Warn Low Grill Guard but still allows you full access to your tow hooks

Picked this up for our OEM steel bumper. It’s a direct replica of the Mopar bar it seems, and was $87 on Amazon. Can be mounted leaning forward or rearward.

Manufacturer is KUAFU

There is exactly 6" of space between the top of the bumper and bottom of the SLP bull bar. That's with the bar in the leaned forward orientation. This bar is reversible, so it can be mounted in a more upright position with a tad of back lean.

Does that 5-3/8" include the mount, or just the lamp itself? The mount will add some overall height to the lamp. Just trying to cover all bases to avoid any unhappy surprises.

That includes the mount. They are currently mounted and I just measured them on the Jeep from the bumper to the top of the light. Thanks for thinking ahead though.

No problem, buddy! Sounds like it'll work just perfect for you.
