Trying to identify jeep bumper..

[Macdaddy4738]

it looks almost exactly like this

but it bolts to the stock wrangler bumper. Some guy up here has one on his, and its exactly what Ive been looking for, but cant find what bumper it is. Any help is appreciated!

reminds me of the Manik ones.
But they kind of suck?
and bend easily.
(and don't appear to be for sale anymore? coworker had one like that, but it got bent to hell, then he took it off to sell his jeep)

I had a Smittybilt that looked just like that on my wifes TJ.

I dont think its the Manik one.

Its very close to that, but the tubes around the lights dont wrap around like http://www.manik.com/images_products/5018.jpg in that picture.

they dont' hold up to much of any abuse. if you bump a tree, instead of just putting a small dent in your bumper, you end up with a damaged bumper, grill and hood too.

brushguard= breaking through brush

When do you ever do that?
A well designed bumper with a grill hoop will serve you much better.

My wife hit 2 deer in a week with the one she had on her TJ. The first one went under the Jeep. No damage and it killed the Deer. The second one hit the DS corner of the guard. It spun the deer around into the DS door. The Brush guard bent back into the fender and bounced back a little bit. For the most part we got a bent Brush guard, Damaged fender and damaged door. And the Deer ran away from this one. It was a bad week for the wife.

Friend of mine in Minnesota went hunting every day last week, didn't see a deer with his gun in his hand, but on 2 of those days he hit deer on the way home.....
