Hmmm... all good things said here. So many choices. Many thanks to everyone. I'll keep all this in mind while researching more!

Also have the JCR Crusader stubby... Just mounted the ENGO 10k with synthetic line. Dropped front end about 1/2 an inch.

Bestop's Pavement Ends steel bumper is light and still holds its own strength wise. A very basic bumper that you can add just about anything to it. I added a Rugged Ridge grille guard and Warn bumper mount skid.

^ Your ascii Jeep needs a track bar, that axle is way off center!

If you want a lightweight bumper, check out the BFH line of bumpers from poison spyder, you get great angles, and loose 10lbs of frame/crossmember. They also weigh under 50 lbs and are seriously beefy, but it's obviously not the choice for everyone.
