Something for all of you to think about on here. As you know I keep up on a lot of different companies and what is new/ whats coming out possibly ( if anything for KJ/KKs ) so little insider info ( hope I don't get in trouble but oh well ) .
Real sure there is a mounting bracket coming out that would bolt onto the front of a KJ/KK and would allow you to mount a TJ or JK bumper directly to it. Would you be interested ?
This would give everyone a wide array of options for bumpers, take the guess work on how to properly mount one and have a super strong mounting point. I've seen some TJ/JK bumpers mounted and personally most look pretty sketchy as far as over all strength unless you have access to a welder and fab skills. This bracket would allow the average Joe Smo to mount his in the driveway with common hand tools .

For those of you who are thinking about doing this, be forwarned that the turn signals are mounted to the factory plastic bumper. Unless you want a huge hole in that area, you'll need to make your own mounts for them and find a place to bolt that mount to. The back of the turn signals are plastic and awkward, so doing this isn't as easy as some might think. There is also the area below the turn signals that probably should be filled. Another issue is how low the radiator and power steering cooler sit. I'm sure some jk bumpers sit lower than others, but this area will likely be open and vulnerable even with the factory rad skid.

Don't get me wrong, I do think said fabricator/supplier is on to something and I'm sure a jk bumper mounted to a kk/ kj will serve its purpose. It would be nice for the masses to have more than two options for bumpers but final looks, fit and frustrating install might not be so desirable.
