Just found this online and it's pretty much exactly what I have been looking for. Just wondering if anyone else has ran this combo and how they liked it. Also, it comes as bare steel. Would I be okay just bedlining it?

Skid_kid ran it for a bit. I looked at it but don't like the winch mounted on top of the bumper.

I've been looking at these bumpers for a while and once I get done with grad school and actually have some money, it will probably be what I get. The prerunner hoop not the stinger tho. And you should be fine bedlining it just make sure you take your time during prep so you get proper adhesion

It's hard to believe that I actually agree with overlander jk about the winch mount but it would be nice if it was sunk down.,,,,

I do like the bumper but the power plant looks like it is blocking air flow.How is your cooling ?

I have the half-sunk bumper - really like it.

bedlining is not a problem, just be sure to prep it properly

It cools fine. Even on the trails in the 90's.

That's with the prerunner hoop as well? I really like the look of that set up.

Yes that's the prerunner hoop. I painted mine that way it's easier to touchup the paint.

I just installed that bumper and love it so far. Super easy install, no cutting just bolts right on.

I have been happy with mine so far. Painted it with rustoleum hammertone for easy touch up. Lower disco skid was a bit of a pain in the ass to install but does its job well

I have a JRC rear that said IMO this is the best front..tight not to wide and keeps the winch out of the air stream.

Which Manufacturer is that one, i don't recognize the emblem? that's what I'm looking for, Only question, will it fit a Warn Zeon? I heard they have fitment problems on some bumpers with submerged placement...

I like the JCR. Only reason I eliminated it is because I'm not crazy about the bull bar, prefer something gusset style with only the bar in the front. If they could do that, I'd probably buy it.

you can order any bar separately - if it's not the one that comes with the bumper you'll have to weld it on yourself but ask, they might do it on a slow(rare) day

I just painted my JCR. It gives no torque specs for the install. What do y'all suggest?
