Honestly thank you Full timer. Yes things might not have been done yet, but I live many miles from them, if you want stuff done get locals to get over there. They were more then willing to help us out. And they really are a great company. Instead of bashing the fact that nothing has been done yet by them help push for it. Without positive attempts to get something there would have never been any type of product created for our Libertys. all I'm saying is yes, it is possible nothing will ever happen, but it's also possible since they r an established company that they can start pumping out bumpers of all different styles.

Very well said Terry!

It's a shame we have some "Negative Nancy's" here on the forum.

I'd like to see what these guys can do and what kind of prices they will have. The only real bumper we have to choose from is the ARB and it's not what I want. Hopefully these guys can produce something like the Sundance at a reasonable price.

The big difference in this company is that they are already established. It is my understanding that right now they are swamped with work. Work doing 4X4 projects. They are not going to be dependent on building KJ/KK parts with its low volume market.

And there is the key line for any company out there making products for KJs or KKs , most owners do not want to spend the money that it takes to build good quality aftermarket parts.

Recently two things happened on the same day, I was getting quotes for home and auto ( whoops Jeep) insurance so had added up most of the "extra " parts on mine so they would be covered.

That evening I got a PM on another forum from a new KJ owner who saw my KJ and wanted his to look just like mine. Started asking all of the usual questions and then asked about total cost. When I told him I had over 6500 ( well if I would of paid full retail :wink: ) in just parts he said "No way, too much, I only want to spend maybe 4 to 500 total. I'm sure I can do it for way less "

So even if a company comes out with a 400 front bumper he'll think its too much, heck a lot of owners think 7-800 is too much for a good lift!

Of course there are a few of us who are crazy enough to do it and smile about it everyday!!! :ROTFL:

I really don't know, or care. I can only assume it's still a work in progress (the web site). I do know they are very busy.
As an asside....I'm a Southern boy and my mama always told me "if you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all". (just sayin')
