Default Jeeperman Rear and ? Front Bumper

I know there is some controversy with the jeeperman bumpers but I like the look and functionality of it. Therefore, I've settled (at least I think) on the Jeeperman rear bumper. Would it look wierd if I had a different brand front? Like Shrockworks or something. I'm looking for something that would look good with the rear jeeperman. Thanks.

I have the shrockworks stubby front bumper and am waiting for the Jeeperman Rear. I think it is going to look great!. I would mix and match all day long, buy what you like.


First real post of my Baja JK. Shown with AEV Bridger wheels on Goodyear MTR 315-75-16. Shrockworks front stubby with Warn 9.5Ti winch and Baja Design Sol Tek HID driving lights.

I have the AEV front bumper and just finished installing the rest of my Jeeperman Rear Bumper today (the swing gate portion). I will be taking some pictures in the next couple days. If you want to see them please PM me as a reminder and I will get the pics to you.

---Just a note to those waiting on the Jeeperman...You can have them send you out a bare steel bumper right away and then get it powder coated at your own expense. When I ordered mine it was placed on backorder and I was informed all orders were back ordered due to units being held up at the powder coating shop...I wanted my bumper on before winter since I am in Fargo, ND and they just sent me the a bare steel unit.

Default Bumpers

I have the Jeeperman rear and a FabFours front. The texture/finish is a bit different on the two.....nobody has said a word about it and they look good on the JK. The Jeeperman is very stout, well made, and works awesome.

IMPORTANT!! when you install your rear swing out take a piece of emry cloth and polish up the post that the bearings slip over. Mine had some overspray on it and it hung up the bearings keeping them from slipping down smoothly.It was a bitch getting the bearing off so I could polish up the shaft....after that it went right on.

Lightbulb Jeeperman

Personally, I would not do business with them again. I canceled my rear bumper order on July 6th but left my skid plate order for my front bumper active. My vendor called me on Friday July 20th to inform me that they would like to cancel the skid plate as well. I agreed with their recommendation due to following. They have been waiting for almost three weeks for the balance of my order to be refunded to them. They have left messages on Jeeperman's answering machine, sent e-mails and still no response from them. I was informed that one day the voice mailbox is full, then the next day it is empty. Yet, Jeeperman has not responded back to them. They are disputing all their credit card charges with Jeeperman due to their lack of response.


On a positive note, I ordered my rear Mountain Off Road Bumper w/tire carrier on the 6 of July. I received one half yesterday and the other should be delivered today. When I ordered my M.O.R.E bumper they told me it would take two weeks to build and plan for a week for shipping. They met the time frame I was given and can be reached on the phone. NOW THAT IS CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!!

I have the Schrockworks front with the RockHard4x4 rear/swingaway. I would take a good look at Rockhard4x4 the product was delivered on time and it was in perfect condition. I would also like to say that Louis at Rockhard is a great guy.

Default It wont matter if it looks different

than the front - your front bumper will have been long gone & rusted off before you get the jeeperman bumper anyway

Post Customer service

Would they be shipping in one week or would that be two weeks?????

Your customer service needs to dramatically improve. Which includes answer phone calls, returning e-mails and voice messages with your future customers if you expect to survive.
