Reviews for Quadratec QRC Front Winch Ready Bumper for 18-24 Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT
Great looking and relatively easy one person install. Flood lights were initially pointing a little high (oncoming traffic flashing their brights at night) and had to use a washer to adjust them down. Arrived slightly damaged from shipping and Quadratec was very quick to respond and take care of it!

This is a great bumper! Solid! I reused my JT Rubicon stock LED fog lights, those were a bit difficult to install. I had to shim out the bumper in order to install the Badlands Apex 12k winch. I used 4 M12 washers per bolt/stud, so 32 total. I replaced the bolts with M12x45mm 1.75, 4 of them. This gave me plenty of room for the winch. Attaching the winch was a chore as the winch plate is not easily accessible from under the vehicle. After shimming out the bumper, there was enough space to allow me to reinstall my factory skid plate.
It was a win win all around shimming out the bumper.
Love this bumper, it is solid, well made and was very easy to install on my 2018 Wrangler Sport S JL. I had no issues with the fog lights as others have said. Looks great! One suggestion is to remove old bumper in advance, pull the fog lights and wiring harness. Then when the new bumper arrives your instal goes fast!
Looks great! Very easy install except for 1 of the bolts that would not line up. If the bumper had 4 studs on each side like the OEM bumper, I think it would be easier to install.
