Wanting to get a new bumper and winch. Can anyone recommend a good one? Show some pics too if you don't mind. Thanks. Happy 2013!

 

I have the Lod full width front bumper with Smittybuilt comp winch. Look on their site, they have several to choose from. I'll take some pictures of it tomorrow.

 

Best top stubby

 

What steering stablizer are you running. Did it make a difference from oem?

 

I won't show you a pic. of my bumper , because opinions are like a$$ holes , everybody has one . I will say that you should pick out a bumper based on what it will be used for . I like to use a shorty bumper because I rock crawl , and having no bumper in front of my tires gives me more access to the tires for large rocks without hitting the bumper.I also like to have a lower winch mount in my bumper so I have good air flow to the radaitor , and for a lower center of gravity . I also like to have lights in my bumper , possibly the factory lights or others . I also like thick steel plate bumpers . So , there are alot of things to think about when getting a bumper , and you should get one that fits your needs . Oh , and as far as a winch , get the best one you can afford , hopefully made in America ! Good luck !

 

There's an entire thread in the Show & Tell section for front bumpers...start there.

 

Psc brawler lite with bull bar and Psc rockbrawler rear. Both linex'd.

 

Made mine!!!!! 100 bucks scrap metal

 

It's a BDS stabilizer. I think it made a slight difference on the road but also just may be in my head. It wasn't very expensive at all so I went for it with the BDS lift kit.

 

Here is a low budget option, eautogrill front bumper, I'm happy with it. I just ordered the quadratech integrated solenoid winch.
