2006 kj needs new front bumper

buns79 · **Posted:** Sun Oct 07, 2007 10:01 pm

We would like to put an aftermarket front bumper on our 2006 kj sport but none seem like they would fit, our liberty has the fog lights in the grill not in the bumper. It would seem all prior years have a different grill and bumper set up. A heavy duty bumper would be great since I pretty much tore the bumper off on the last outing. Wife not happy!

ARB makes one for yours they have for earlier and later models

You just have to look around the board, alot of topics about aftermarket bumpers. Here is mine

Could you please help us in locating this bumper? We have searched numerous sites and are having no luck at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated?

Sure, just go here http://www.tjmbullbars.com/distributors.htm and look up distributors in your state and all the states around you. Actually you can call any distributor in the nation. Here is why, they, the distributor, orders the bumper from the factory in TN and they send it straight to your door. So the store you buy it from never even sees it.

When you call them, ask for a TJM T17 bumper for a 2006 Jeep Liberty. They will either tell you they dont have one or that TJM doesnt make one. Tell them to call the factory, they will know what you're talking about. Expect to pay somewhere around $800-$900.

If you or your friends got any weldin skills then you could fab up one yourself on the cheap.

If you lived out here me and my buddy would make one for you. He does this kinda stuff, just opened his own business...there are guys like him everywhere who would be more than happy to set you up with a custom job

I like it! Do they sell it winch ready?

Endurance · **Posted:** Mon Oct 08, 2007 9:36 pm

yes, its winch ready. Its got a winch sub assembly.

Endurance.

Just a suggestion; you should buy some black door stripping to cover the edges of your fenders where they meet the bumper like the ARB.

Make sure the bumper you buy has been crashed tested for insurance reasons and your safety.

so where is a good place to get those shackles for the bumpers?

Endurance · **Posted:** Tue Oct 09, 2007 12:11 am

grumppee,

Thanks for the tip, I already got the strips, just havent had time to put them on.

As for the shackles, they came with the recovery kit I bought. Here is the website, I got the Patrol 2 kit.

Might be a little pricy but very high quality, I like it. Gives you a warm fuzzy feeling knowing you got a recovery kit onboard
