ok narrowed it down. looking for something that would take abbuse from anything from trees or a car accident. yes i know there all different choices lol im all over the place. and im deciding this off looks not functionality. yes i wheel but nothing to serious just want to make my front end look a lil better. i got a 8000lb winch for free and gunna put it on just want opinions on which bumper. thanks guys
But, I am a girl and have not gotten into hard core off-roading, just a little baby trail stuff. Still chicken, as I have not had a fellow Jeeper to go along for "WHEN" I screw up (not IF--I am not that overly confident) .
If you want any protection stay away from anything smittybilt.
Chinese Junk, your jeep deserves better.
I have seen 2 others of these same bumpers do the same exact thing as this one, except on the passenger side.
If you are going to wheel your Jeep look at a American made 3/16 steel bumper.
I like the stubby bumper in your first set of photos. I like the stubby aluminum bumper made by Savvy even more, I have one myself on my TJ. Made from uber-strong T-6 6061 auminum, it's a superb high-quality bumper that will hold up to whatever you can throw at it. If you don't like its aluminum color, which I personally do, you can always rattle-can paint or powder coat it satin black.
I wouldn't touch any of the Chinese junk from Smittybilt.
