Quadratec Brute Strength™ Winch Bumper Stubby Width Bumper for 18-25 Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT

The Quadratec Brute Strength™ Winch Ready Front Bumper offers ultimate protection for the front of your Jeep Wrangler JL and Gladiator JT. This premium bumper has a fully welded one-piece outer construction using 6mm thick lightweight aluminum plate. The aggressively styled Competition Bumper bolts directly to the vehicle’s existing mounting points and there’s no drilling or modifications required. The separate 5mm thick steel winch plate provides a superior substructure and will accommodate most winches up to 12,000 lb capacity. This design offers significant weight savings over comparable all-steel bumpers. Keeping the weight down on your Wrangler was the reason why Jeep went with aluminum parts for the body. Lighter weight means less change in gas mileage and without the heavy weight of a steel bumper, you won't have to worry about the front end dipping down while braking.

Our Brute Strength Winch Bumpers are fully finished with an attractive and durable light-textured black powder coating. Bumpers feature fog light provisions to retain the factory fog lights and can be upgraded to our high-performance plug-n-play LED versions. The Brute Strength Stubby design measures 47” wide and provides additional tire clearance if needed while the Brute Strength Full Width design measures 69” wide. Bumpers include a removable aluminum over rider hoop with sleek dimpled speed holes and a durable 4mm thick fully welded construction. The over-rider hoop measures 40” wide at the base and features a series of holes and slots for auxiliary light mounting. The welded steel recovery plates feature tow hooks and D-Ring mounts for use with 3/4” D-Rings with 7/8” pins. D-Rings, lights, and skid plate are available separately.

It's a Jeep, so why does weight matter? The answer is simple... Less weight means better fuel economy. It also means faster acceleration, better braking, and less suspension sag. If you're an overland adventurer, it can mean the difference between making it to your next checkpoint and borrowing gas from a passerby. If your Jeep is a daily driver, you'll save money at the pump and get enhanced off-road capabilities... the best of both worlds. The gas savings alone will pay for the bumper over the life of your Jeep.

Behind the scenes, everything is engineered for top off-road performance. See those farm jack openings next to the d-rings? We've hidden a small steel bracket inside that's bolted directly to the frame. The bracket prevents your bumper from getting knarled when using a Hi-Lift jack. We even added steel to the winch plate so you can choose a winch up to 12,000 lb. This bumper has strength where you need it and weight savings where you don't.
