I think trailready.com still makes some, but they are allot similar to ARBs.

Trailready's KJ bumpers have been "unavailable" for about 3 1/2 years. They list them on their site, but they alwys tell people that they are re-tooling. Oh, and they list for about $900 too. I'd recommend a front hitch or wait for Rock Lizard to finish their bumpers.

Hey Jason. Is that from this weekend in Clinton? Looks like fun. From the looks of it, Rock Lizard's stuff is worth waiting for if you're not into the ARB.

unless you get the extended battery cable and hook the winch up to the rear receiver

I'm an ARB convert, and I don't even run with a winch at all! Check this out:

I agree with Jason, but that is a main reason I want to get a steel bumber to smash/push through things like that

not realy because it would just hang up on your way down

usually dont have it installed until i need it so i guess i wouldnt have that problem.

even with that one small (and rare to happen) drawback, the pro of being able to use it front or back outweighs the con of it possibly getting hung upon a steep incline. if really worried about it, you could weld a plate to the botton of the winch mount and use it as a skid in case it comes into contact with a solid surface and it will easily push through any kind of dirt (like the soft stuff in your pic)

My lack of internet except at work happened so I went with the charity run. I have your # now. The KJs will hit the trail together. We are 2 strong now and the # has got to grow. I'll roll to BR on Tuesday for the meeting.

I wonder how Rock Lizard is coming along with his goodies that are in the works??
