Reviews for ARB Hoopless Combination Front Winch Bumper for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK
Looks close to factory bumper
You bought and installed this bumper. It is excellent in quality and fit. I love how it mounts higher up and closes the gap between the bumper and factory fender flares. I have learned you can never go wrong with ARB stuff.
I have had this bumper for about six months now and it is great. I love the full-width style and protection that it offers. I paired it with ARB's full width (non-modular) rear bumper, swapping out the stock plastics all at once. The bumper is well-made and solid, and I would definitely recommend it. BE WARNED, however, if you are expecting a bolt-on job or an easy weekend project, this is not it. There is a lot of cutting and grinding to be done, and getting the bumper to line up with the flares was a real pain. I had to drill out the stock holes on the frame quite a bit to get everything lined up. Eventually I did get it, but it took a lot of work. The bumper itself is great, but it definitely wasn't designed with ease of installation in mind. If you have the $$$, you really should have a professional install it for you. 4/5 just because the install was so rough and the instructions are trash (so, pretty much industry standard) - the product itself is great.
For a consumer installation not recommended,
Cutting your old bumper required,
Fog light brackets poorly designed there are nuts welded obstructing the access that make them very hard to install.
We ordered in April, now in December still not installed due to two damaged bumpers we had exchange, back order,missing parts, not marching parts.
SUPER heavy!!!!
Installation manual doesn’t detail every part.
