I have a '21 willys and found a good deal on rubicon steel bumpers, front and rear. They'll fit ok?

Yes. Only thing is rear flares won’t match up perfectly.I have a '21 willys and found a good deal on rubicon steel bumpers, front and rear. They'll fit ok?
I just did the same swap, you can use all the same stuff. When you pick up the rear bumper, see if the other person has the side support brackets.Thanks for the tip. Will the hardware in the stock bumper work with the steel bumpers, or will I need to scrounge nuts n bolts?
I will also add that rear will need nuts. The stock plastic bumper has bolts not nuts. Question - is your front bumper like the original sport? I thought the 21 Willys had the same plastic bumper as Sahara/Rubi. If has newer plastic bumper the filler panel should work.I just did the same swap, you can use all the same stuff.

Also, unless you’re going to run a winch, you’ll probably want to get the plastic piece that covers the top of the space behind the steel bumpers. Good luck!
