Bumper with vacum pump mount?
I have a 2013 JKUR, I am looking to get a new front bumper but I don't want to have to relocate the vacuum pump. Any one know of a bumper I could get?

From what I've heard, the Poison Spyder Brawler Lite does not require vacuum pump relocation. Not 100% though, but something I'd look into if you're willing to spend the money.

I have a HylineOffroad front mid width. It didn't require a relocation. It's the top mount winch bumper, not the sunken winch one. http://www.quadratec.com/products/12005_8015_07.htm
It's made right up the road from me in PA.

Suck it up and move the pump. It's really not a big deal. You shouldn't be buying a bumper based on not having to move the pump. Buy one that fits your use and that you like the look.

Anything with a sunken winch mount will likely require repositioning the vacuum pump.
JCR Offroad has a line of bumpers that don't require relocating the pump. I have their Dagger stubby bumper. Although it was a pain in the a$$ to get around the pump to get to the bumper bolts, you don't HAVE to move it.
Even the JCR bumpers that require you to move it, come with a simple bracket that makes it easy. You don't have to move it to the engine bay, just out of the way. I haven't looked at every one of their bumpers, but the ones I did look at follow this pattern.

You can always just drop the pump under the bracket. It costs about $5 in parts and no rewiring.
