Does anyone know who designed that bumper. IMHO, I think that is the baddest bumper I have seen for the KJ. Would be nice if that went into production, I can dream. :cry:

It uses custom made headlights w/ the turn signals incorporated into them. Also notice that the grille is custom made too.

AEV, never heard of them. What do they specialize in?

They do not make them for us. Just a one time deal only. Good luck.

Thanks man, good site. If you click on the link for "coming soon" it says that they are coming out with a rack that will fit the kj.

That has been on their website for, literally, the last three years...

They've never changed their site. It would be nice to see though.

That isn't the Liberator, This is the KJ and bumpers they are talking about.

I don't think they did. I remember hearing it was a different company, maybe it was AEV? If they did make the Liberator bumpers then why not show the pics on their projects pics and why make those other ugly ones they put on the red KJ? (just my HO, saw them in person and wasn't impressed at all.)

Notice how those end pieces are not welded on? They must be bolted in behind the main piece. I wonder if the shortened front grill is going to be made available. That would help the companies making front bumpers, just make one design for all KJ model years, not just the `05 and newer.

KJ's need all the air they can get through the front grill area. That shortened grill would cirtainly make the KJ susseptable to O/heating in demanding conditions. We discussed this with TJM also when we were designing the front bar. the ARB one does restrict flow in comparision, especially when paired with big driving/spot lights.

ALTHOUGH, that shortened grill does look great ;)
