Rockhard 4x4 aluminum, I went front and back only 4-6lbs heavier than Rubicon plastic ones good for most off roading except harder rock crawling body damaging trails

I was surprised at how my RH4x4 aluminum mid width bumper took the hits on the Rubicon. Just some scuffs.

I was impressed enough to want to go with the aluminum rear but found too good a deal to pass on on a LOD Destroyer steel bumper with tire carrier from a fellow forum member. RH4x4 only has that in steel as well.

I'm a bit biased on the Reaper f2 bumpers. Have it on both mine and my wife's. I think they look really good, love you can accent the backer plates, and they're made in America. Still working on fogs for my wife's just waiting on the wiring harness but it uses stock sahara and rubicon (non steel bumper) fogs with no modification.

Good to hear on the hits The thing that sold me on Rockhard 4x4 apart from the look and weight is the powder coating, it is the only one on the market that comes up looking like new when you wash them, mine are two years old still look amazing

Thanks for sharing. Really digging the look of this one and the matching skid plate.

I will say if you land on this setup keep an eye out as they tend to run 20% off sales. I'm actually waiting for the next one and am going to grab the side steps for mine.

I'm running the Arcus with a 10k Warn. I wanted something light weight, had a recessed winch, took the factory fog lights and looked close to factory. I painted the hooks red to match the Rubicon accents.

Definitely the AEV RX bumper. I’ve got the real thing, but the company 4x4 wavers make a copy for less than 1/2 the price.

I think so, they would just stick up higher
