Looking for A super basic TJ style bumper for my JL...not really into all these angles, regardless of how functional they may be.
Anyone know of anything / in SoCal and want to fabricate one?
Something like this...
Here's the @NextDan Next Venture Motorsports Adventure Series Rear Bumper. It comes with or without light cut outs but with that said, the light cut outs are for 2 inch cube lights I believe. I ordered with no light cut outs and added the Baja Designs S2 Sports flush mounts myself. Super simple bumper, American designed and made, and fits the Jeep perfectly.
3rd front skid is bad ass. Tried 2 others that failed. This one fits (with slight modification to it) and very happy with this one.
these are on sale for 740 right now at 4wp.Doesn't look like this one has made the list yet. I had never heard of these guys, but I saw this set-up on a JL parked at my local grocery store and it got me looking at it. The company is called Rage 4th and apparently is a start-up owned by a 3-time KOH winner. Made in the USA, high quality materials, beautiful design and finish work, and lots of cool features including integrated fog light mounts, integrated 20in light bar mount, semi-recessed integrated winch mount and fairlead, integrated ARB twin compressor mount, bull bar, and D-rings set up for recovery and/or flat towing.
Rear bumper is pretty slick looking too and accommodates the factory receiver and wiring, factory proximity sensors, room for a 40" spare tire, and windows for flush mounted back up lights.
I think these look like some pretty sharp bumpers. The styling really appeals to me, the design looks well thought out for large tires and approach/departure angles, and they check all the boxes so far as features go. I am a bit concerned about how much abuse that light bar might take being integrated into the skid, but then again I guess the front skid on my previous Jeep never really took too much damage even traversing the Rubicon and other such trails. Now for the downer... only sold at 4WP, and they retail for just shy of $1000 for the front bumper, just shy of $1000 for the rear bumper, and oh yeah... just shy of $500 if you want the front skid included.
Its on sale for 475 with their Black Friday Code for 120.00 off. I'm so tempted at that price.
What mod did you make? Cut off the top bend that goes under the bumper. I have the same set up, but I didn’t get the skip plate on. Just hit a buck at 45mph yesterday with it and lucky I took off the plastic bumper.3rd front skid is bad ass. Tried 2 others that failed. This one fits (with slight modification to it) and very happy with this one.
It was a pre Black Friday sale. It ended already
