Durango 4x4
Durango 4x4 enhances the lines of the stock JK bumper while giving it a stronger, bolder look and the brute strength of a unit crafted from 1/4-inch-thick steel. Every bumper includes a 2-inch receiver and exclusive 1-inch-thick laminated shackle mounts. The design allows you to carry a 35-inch spare without adding the swing-away tire carrier, which is optional with all of Durango 4x4's rear bumpers.

ShrockWorks
The brand-new JK bumpers from ShrockWorks are constructed of high-strength, 3/16-inch steel plate that is laser-cut, CNC-formed, and meticulously welded and finished by skilled craftsman in the USA. The company's midwidth bumper is wider than the stubby-version bumper and will accommodate either the factory foglights or 4-inch aftermarket lights. Other features include 1-inch-thick steel recovery points and a removable 3/16-inch skidplate that provides additional protection and will also protect the sway-bar-disconnect motor on the JK Rubicon. The front bumper is also ready to accept your favorite winch up to 9,500 pounds, including some larger winches like the new Warn PowerPlant. Finish options include: bare steel, semigloss, or textured black powdercoat. Both bumpers are available with a winch hoop (as pictured), no top tubing, or a grille/radiator hoop.

Rusty's Off-Road Products
Tough enough for the rugged trails of Moab and Tellico yet stylish enough for a night out on the town, Rusty's trail-tested bumpers are fabricated from laser-cut 3/16-inch steel and are CNC precision-formed. These bumpers are powdercoated in a wrinkle-black finish that matches the factory flares and are predrilled for most winches, with no added winch plate necessary. Rusty's offers optional bolt-on D-ring mounts and an optional winch protector bar. The new Trail Tested front bumper is available in two styles: PN JBJK-777 offers maximum coverage for the under-bumper protective bar; PN JBJK700 requires cutting the lower protective bar off, which "skinnies" up the front bumper about 4 inches for better approach angles.
