Reviews for Rugged Ridge Spartan Full Width Rear Bumper for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK
Really nice addition to our Jeep. It matches the front Spartan bumper perfectly and is so much sturdier than the stock plastic unit from Jeep. Also it is only $50 more for this unit than the stock Jeep bumper. It would be nice if torque specs would be included with the directions. Used red Loctite to make sure nothing comes loose. Total installation time is 1 1/2 hours. Noticed that both the front and rear bumpers are made in China. Too bad they are not American made!!
Very happy with this bumper. Easy installation and it looks great. The finish is tough. I particularly like how the tow points bolt directly to the frame of the Jeep.
Great bumper for the price and fast shipping. Bumper went on with no issues and matches the finish on my rugged ridge xhd front bumper.
Looks good, easy install. Appears well made, certainly a huge improvement over stock plastic one. Didn’t have to remove the 35” spare (mounted on a teraflex hd carrier/higher than stock) and didn’t have to remove RR aftermarket receiver hitch. Actually made it easier to mount new bumper by resting it on the hitch. Had to “coax” the bumper mounting brackets into the frame rails with hammer but overall an easy job. Should have a rebate coming.
Excellent product, Installed with simple hand tools in about 45 minutes. fit and finish are excellent.
Very easy to install.looks great
Piece of cake to put on. My wife and I installed it in less than a half hour. The hardest part was removing the old bumper. Rusted Bolts. Etc.
As noted, before, we did not remove the spare tire or trailer hitch receiver. Some of the welds on the bumper leave a bit to be desired, not real precise.
Cannot wait to see it
There is no torque spec on the manual. Call rugged ridge they said 50 Lb/ft for all the bolts.
I replaced a damaged stock bumper with this steel bumper. It was simple to attach. I only gave 4 stars as I had to readjust the bumper 3 times to keep metal on metal squeaking to stop between the body of my Jeep and the bumper. Otherwise, I am very happy with the look and sturdiness of this bumper.
