Rear bumper suggestions for my liberty

Hello,
I have an 06 liberty CRD the has an ARB front bumper so I'm looking for a rear bumper to better match the front (stock bumper is currently on)
ARB doesn't make a rear bumper so I'm curious what people on this board have found useful. I would like something that obviously is tougher but can handle a fuel can and other odds and ends. Thanks for any suggestions.

Last I checked, the only options are rock lizard fabrications, and tactical armor group. A fella that goes by "boiler" on this forum was making some pretty sweet aluminum rears, but I think that he discontinued his efforts. Some folks have fitted stock TJ bumpers with a little effort, but IMHO they dont look very good, and I doubt you'd want to add a tire/Jerry can holder to one.

So an update to this. After A LOT of talking with Martin at Rock Lizard, I pulled the trigger on a back bumper and a whole host of other things. Not that it sounds like he needs more business, but this guy has been the BEST to work with. Answered all of my silly questions and was very helpful in getting the best shipping rate for all of my items.
I look forward to receiving all my goodies and installing them. AND a big thank you to the guys that gave me some insight into Rock Lizard.

I'm a newbie to offroad vehicle (But a huge motorcycle fanatic) so I wanted to take my time and do some research on what I wanted and needed. So, I bought Komodo Dragon rear bumper, heavy duty sliders, tank plate, sport rack and shackles.
Martin was just the best to talk with and I HIGHLY recommend him. Once I receive everything and get it painted or powder coated I will take pictures.....

Just paint everything, powder coating isn't worth it if you're going to use your KJ
Paint you can touch up easy, won't rust under it as bad as powder coating

Have ordered from Rock-Lizerd rear heavy duty and front bumpers and payed in full upfront more then 6 month now with no delivery to date. All that i get from Martin is excuses all the time.

I'm preparing to take the mater to court by the end of this month via my family lawyer in U.S if i don't get my order shipped or full refund :evil:

have you called and talked to him, I know he is putting bumpers and such out the door as quick as he can . if you changed anything on your order it may take longer.
have to remember he is a small shop that is very busy

I'll be more specific; my order is dated Apr 2012, and no i haven't changed any thing in my order. And yes i'm aware he is a small shop. but put your self in my situation, from APR 2012 to date and he is yet working on my order :?:

how fair is that.

I'd have my bank or credit card company do a chargeback at this point. There's no excuse for that type of customer service, or lack thereof.

It's a PayPal transaction.
