Hello All

I was looking the web over the weekend and found this picture. Can anyone tell me who makes this bumper and give me any "pros" and "cons".

I was going with the AEV but now that I've seen this one - I might have to think it over.

Thanks in advance.

 

Rock-Slide Engineering. I know someone who is running their rocker gaurds they seem well built, I have not seen their bumpers in person yet.

 

The thing looks like a tank! I dig it, but how much is the wallet dent?

 

1200 bones plus shipping ouch

 

id take the silver one in the background

 

i think those are all aluminum also?

 

could you imagine what it would weigh if it was steel

 

From their RS-E website

Built with 3/16" alloy steel and 1/4" mounting plates


Manufacturer: Rock-Slide Engineering
SKU: N/A
Weight: 120.0 lbs
Dimensions: 72.0" x 16.0" x 16.0"

 

Hello All

I spoke with Steve at R-S Eng today, as you can see they weigh 120 - 4 lbs more than the AEV. The light openings are 5 inches and they sell a light kit that wires right into the existing harness and uses the current JK fog light switch.

The AEV is priced $1318 plus shipping. - The R-S bumper sells for $1199 plus about 150 to ship. The installation is down and dirty - installs in about an hour.

Bumper comes powdered coated. And the bull bar has a light kit that lights up the winch area for night use.

Bottom line is I have made my decision...

 

okay i wasnt sure i thought i saw a bumper with the same style hoop and it was all aluminum.
