Has anyone installed the Warrior Rock Crawler Front Bumper WAR59050? I'd like to see some pics and info on quality and fitment.

 

They are like 3 miles from my house but I'm not very impressed with their JK bumper. Or the rest of their stuff for that matter. They don't have any prices on their website so I can't compare it to others. Funny thing is about 2 weeks ago they were trying to sell their completely decked out JK on Craigslist here. That struck me a kind of weird seeing as if you were serious about selling JK stuff you would probably want to hold onto it and show it off here and there locally. But hey, what do I know?

 

My thoughts exactly. I have purchased the Warrior mirror mounts and I can safely say they are the worst POS I have ever seen in my life. They must have spent no hours in R&D. As for the bumper, I strongly believe it is as badly designed as the rest of their product line. My advice to you is don't buy anything from them.

 

that's what I was wondering. That pic is from the Tellico site and they are selling them for $249 plus shipping.

 

This may be a bit long but, here goes. I bought a a Warrior Safari rack for my JK. When it arrived, I actually read the installation instructions and discovered that I really needed corner reinforcements before I went any further. I ordered them and waited. When they arrived, my son and I installed the corners and rack, per the somewhat useless instructions, and the rack looked bad. The basket was made 2-1/2" too long! I contacted Warrior and we made arrangements for me to drive down (300 miles round trip) and get a new basket. I was to be reimbursed for my costs.

When I arrived, the basket that they had waiting for me was the same as the one that I had! They went through a stack of them until they found one that was only 1/2" too long and I reluctantly agreed to accept it.

At this time, I also told them that the optional air dam that I had purchased wasn't going to work as the designer seemed to forget that there are light tabs that would interfere. They took my air dam and told me that they were aware of the problem and that I would receive a redesigned one as soon as it was built. :sad:

At this time I was also told that I was not going to be paid for my trouble but would receive 'products' instead. Again, I reluctantly agreed.

I sent an email asking about some items that I might be interested in as payment for my troubles. I wasn't offered any items, only a small discount! Now, I am getting mad.

Several weeks later, I got the air dam and guess what? IT DIDN'T FIT EITHER! I had to bend the brackets to get it to fit but I managed. After all of that, the first time I drove over 50MPH, the air dam banged into the light tabs, making it almost unbearable to drive.

I went to the hardware store, bought some hinges and bolts and eliminated that problem by attaching the hinge between the light tab and the air dam. No more noise.

I would suggest that you stay away from anything that Warrior makes. Of the 3 items I purchased, the corner reinforcements fit OK but 2 baskets and 2 air dams didn't for an 80% failure rate. Them ain't good numbers :angry:

 

Thanks for the heads up about this outfit. I was going to just pop over there and take a look for kicks but now forget it. BTW, they still have their completely decked out JK for sale on Craigslist http://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/car/401584545.html just in case you want to see the rest of their goodies.

Thank you for sharing.

I will stay away becaue my trust level index is way below their ability to desire profit.
