no,no,no. too much difference in front ends. save your money and get an ARB.

yes, it could be made to fit (anything can be made to fit) but it would never be right, there are too many differences in the front ends between the '05+ and the '02-'04 KJs.

I was thinking about buying that too.

Anything will fit as long as you have a SAWZALL and ducktape!

so still a major debate topic about this ha some say front ends are too different others say it'll fit idk what to do

thanks for putting up the link.

but heres my problem im on somewhat of a resricted budget.

I am in the process of getting a lift 2.5 inch obviously...Jet chip stage 1...30" tires(not sure type yet).....painting wheels.. and other miscelanous mods so this is like the perfect price right now.

The Jet chip is a waste. The vehilcle computer will re-adjust its settings and calibrations to take the vehicle back down to stock power level. Don't do the chip.

The Bumper will not fit without major bodywork envolved and a stronger suspension on the front of your KJ. Are you ready for that level of effort just to get a cheap bumper? [meaning, it'll cost the same in the end just to buy the right parts]

Not true,the stage II works,no 20hp but it still works,the stage I is useless.

I would recommend "speed tape". :wink:

Jet Chips work alright. The people at Jet keep getting paid and your Jeep is still just as slow as it was before.

it would not be an easy install and would not look as good as one designed for your model year, but all depends on what you want it to look like :wink:
