That's not bad. Thought it would be more. I only asked to get an idea of how much a custom bumper would weigh vs ARB. Seems everyone is selling their KJs and going a different route. Makes me think twice about getting rid of mine. I want to be one-of-a-kind I need to get up that way sometime this year. Might need help with my DIY Franky lift. Anychance you can get some flex shots with the ARB? Not sure if I want a custom bumper or something I know works. Get what I mean? |

Well done!  I'm still waiting for a reliable company to come out with a bumper that I actually like... they've all gone by the wayside, it seems. Not sure if such an animal will ever exist again. Till then, I'll be sporting my stock bumper.  i almost made this post say "Sold the jeep for this..." but i have been bugging you guys about me getting an ARB forever...HERE IT IS LOL |

very nice! i just put an ARB on my XJ a week ago. sad to say their customer service is poop. I emailed them asking for price and availability for replacement marker lights and have never got a response. |

When my finances settle a bit more, I'll be visiting they local supply shop and taking measurements for skid plates. Been tossing around the idea of a bumper fab too.  I know what I want, & I know what I like...... AND I have access to the necessary tools now......  You have been warned!!!

Looking good! While Im not a huge arb fan it does look better then the stocker.  yellocoyote wrote: I'm still waiting for a reliable company to come out with a bumper that I actually like... they've all gone by the wayside, it seems. Not sure if such an animal will ever exist again. Till then, I'll be sporting my stock bumper. Ditto. While RL and arb arent terrible looking, they are a bit too big for my taste. Something a little more simple and smaller would be nice. |
