I was at my 4x4 parts store the other day looking for new front and rear bumpers and rock sliders for my new X, the guy told me that any TJ after market bumper/ slider would fit and that the JK is the 4 door only? Forgive my naivety but they're the experts; or aren't they?
Thanks

 

The jk is wider, longer, it's different. I'm building one ( front bumper) it's starting to take shape. 5x2 tubing with the ends beveled up and angled back , shackle mounts , 60 inches long. I'm anxious to see how it's gonna look.

 

The JK, is Wider in body and frame and Longer, be careful, espcially if new to Jeepin, folks out there will tell you anything they think you want to hear. Papabear

 

like others have said, but no only that the bumpers mount off the front of the frame with 4 bolts per side.

the TJ's mounted top and bottom.

I wouldnt suggest going back to that guy if he doesnt know the difference,.

 

many many thanks, I guess i better get my checkbook...
