Huge KUDOS to our Down Under counter parts for finally giving the KK some love. Also a second Huge KUDOS Ausjeep for even listening to this crazy American 
Now, may I present to you the first front bar (bumper) for the KK 
http://www.ecb.com.au/model/KkCherokee.htm Now this is a bolt over the old bumper set up, but it is a huge step |

Leave it to the boys down under to come up with a good bumper first!  I like the KK one but not the KJ one.

Wonder how much that would cost to buy/ship? |

Excellent find Digger! 
Should we add this to our aftermarket parts/suppliers list? Agreed it is a great step forward. If it was a replacement bumper and winch capable, I'd be seriously considering it now. |

Digger, you can get this in a "black ripple" finish, so maybe you wouldn't have to have it Line-X'd to match.

As far as getting one for my self, no, it's not for me. I will be holding out a tab bit more as their is some talk of a second bumper coming very soon... unless I finish the one I started making

It looks like it had a Winch hole.. \but no cost.. I am sure it will be over $1K once shipped to your house. |

BUT the $64,000 question is, how does it mount to the truck? It goes OVER your existing bumper. I wonder how secure it is and what it could handle ... Something tells me it might be more show then go. |

Looks like a good start for ARB to improve upon, aren't they in AUS??????? Theirs will cost 1K also, but will probably take a hit better than this one. |

It looks very... Functional. Not a fan at all, but its a step in the right direction. It may work well in a head on collision with a MAC truck. |
