anyone know the story on a Mopar bumper & winch combo offered through the stealership? I mentioned my intention to upgrade the front bumper & throw on a winch to the salesperson & he referred to the mopar part, but I haven't seen it. Searched the net and found nothing there either. :confused:

 

Found this on Mopar.com, but no pics and no front bumper.

Here's another shot I took of a JK that didn't make it into the show...

 

a skyjacker jeep WITHOUT good ole skyjacker RED under it....if they made there lift kit components something other than red they may sell more, I know that is the reason I checked them off my list....

one more little "looks" thing in those two pics the skyjacker one has grill inserts and the other has a chrome grill...dose that mean you gotta have bling to run the mopar bumper...LOL...

 

here's a link to the installation of the Mopar front and the Mopar rear swingout tire carrier/bumper combo. No P/N# are mentioned in the write up at all though. Installation for both looks pretty straight forward. Hope that helps.

Thanks guys,
It looks like the second photo from Wayoflife depicts an OEM part since Jeep is embossed on the right side of the bumper. It also looks like the same bumper is featured in the link from RubiconCheck, except the fairlead & winch placement are different. I kinda hope that is the Mopar part (for the sake of warranty), because it looks pretty dope.

 

Actually, the first one (Skyjacker) has the 'Jeep' emblem too...

 

Did anyone get an MSRP for the Jeep bumper?

 

How is Mopar for quality? Does it compair to an ARB or some other third party top of the line bumper?


(Is it flimsy?)

 

Naw, it looked like it was made well enough but in my humble opinion, it just lacked quality. Look at how the ends of the bumper have been finished with visible welds that aren't even that great.
