I am going to change out my stock Euro front bumper on my 2016 JKU and am considering the 10th Anniversary Rubicon bumper. Anyone got any opinions good or bad, experience with this bumper before I lay out the cash. Thanks in advance.

If that's look your after go for it. They're not cheap and they're not as heavy duty as some off the aftermarket options but They are a lot stronger than they look and give that finished OEM look

I have one on my Rubicon, with a winch in it. i think they look awesome in a lot of different setups, and work very well. However, as everyone else says, i don't think i would ever put out that much money for one if mine didn't come with it. Unless i could a really good deal on a used one. The EVO and LOD bumpers look just as good, and are much beefier.

Maybe I'm just rough on mine, but i have had anchor nuts fall off where the wings bolt on, dented and scratched the plastic bumpers that stick out in front of it, and other annoying things like that. Anyways, i hope that helps. :beer:

If you want a nice factory look & you have the cash to spend go with AEV. Probably not as heavy duty as some other options, but they look nice.

Thank you for your thoughts - the deal that I am being offered is a new take off for 400 bucks. I like the look and will want to add a winch in the future.

$400 is better than the $1000+ they were going for when they first came out. If you like the look and are happy with the deal, go for it. If for whatever reason the deal goes sour or you have second thoughts you'll certainly be able to get a nice aftermarket solution a similar price.

What winch are you planning? I planned on keeping my Hardrock bumper, but after buying the PowerPlant and winch plate, I found out the winch wouldn't fit the cutout without some serious trimming. I decided to sell the bumpers and go LOD. I generally agree with everyone else, the HR bumper looks nice, but it was definately MUCH thinner steel than my LOD. Over all, I'm happy with my LOD all said and done.

Do you know if a Zeon 10 or 12 will fit ?

Keep in mind you'll have to get the winch plate as well which will run you about another 250. I have a hard rock and have nothing bad to say about the bumper, but I would buy something aftermarket if I didn't already have it like mentioned a bunch of times above. But if you like the look better, go for it man.

I have the Zeon 10 in my 10A bumper. Fits but tight. I also would like better access to the winch than this bumper allows. I have been thinking about trimming mine in front of the winch. I went with the mopar winch mount because it looked like it was designed better.

I say go for it. I love mine. The Zeon 10S mounted easily, but tight. Just had to cut the vacuum mount and move. I took the wings off when I went to 37's. If you buy it, you might go to Rubitrux site as they have some good accessories for this bumper.

Thanks, I'm going to check them out later on.
