Reviews for Rugged Ridge Spartan Front Bumper for 18-24 Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT
I installed this front and matching rear bumper back on my 2020 JLU back around the end of 2020. At first I was very happy with them but after close to a year you could see corrosion that was coming from under the coating. I emailed quadratec and sent pics and they sent me a replacement right away. I swapped out the old bumper and sent it back. Now another year later and the replacement bumper is rusting badly in the same areas and again you could see it starting underneath the coating which was not chipped or scratched. If you buy this bumper expect it to rust. That said, the rear bumper has been fine.
This install was a NIGHTMARE! The wench plate holes did not match up, had to cut and drill my own holes. The brackets to mount the lights, one was perfect, the other side was sent wrong. Had to fabricate my own. AND the wires do not reach to plug them back in. Not Quadratec’s fault, called the manufacturer and they didn’t know what to say.
