smittybilt themselves don't know when they'll hit the market. the guy i talked to on the phone couple o weeks ago didn't have a solid date.

I talked to them yesterday, they said "best guess", first shipment will be there in about a month (front bumpers), with no idea as to how the quality will look on the first run (welds/tubing/finish), I figure patience is a virtue!!

spoke to smittybilt today and they have the Classic front and rear bumpers w/tire carriers in stock now and are shipping them. i called 4wd and they expect to receive them at the end of next week.

still no date on the SRC bumpers though. they're definitely not shipping yet. i think the majority of people are waiting on the SRC and not the Classic bumpers though.

Just got off the phone with Mat at Smittybilt. The first batch of 50 SRC front Grille Guard bumpers went out to powdercoating today. He's going to call back with an estimate, but they should ship in the next week or two.

My bumper (#6 in line from 4wd) is for sale (see 'For Sale' forum).

I received a phone call from 4wd.com this afternoon. Looks like they will start shipping bumpers out in the next few days.

Does anyone have an update on the availability of the SRC front bumper and rear bumper with tire carrier? These are my favorite but really need something in 2 weeks or less.

Jeep is getting rebuilt after an accident and can get the insurance company to pay for these instead of OEM replacements but need quick, if possible.

i don't think you'll be able to get on in the next 2 weeks. maybe not even in the next 2 months. i keep hearing different stories from smittybilt, 4wd, and 4wp.

I talked to 4WP yesterday and he said that they had 50+ due in the 9th. I do not know if this will happen or not, but I am keeping my fingers crossed.

got an email from smittybilt today that they're expecting another 60 days or so. if it weren't for the price and free shipping through 4wd, i'd have given up a long time ago. oh well, maybe i can ask for them for xmas now

I got a tracking number on my Smittybilt SRC today. It should deliver Friday so this could be a mod weekend.
