Custom4x4 fab bumper
Hey new here, just bought my first XJ! Is anyone running one of their bumpers? Thinking of getting this one and would like some input on the quality. Thanks in advance!

They say nothing about frame tie ins on their page so I would contact them to make sure they have them. I wouldn't suggest buying a bumper without tie ins. Got both my front and rear bumpers made for $710 from ares fab with special requests. Could've gotten them cheaper if I didn't get them to add on stuff.

Also look at a side shot of it if you can, I know I bought a Jeep with Winch/Bumper on it that I swapped off and kept for later before I fixed and sold that Jeep, When I went to use it, I HATED IT, So I drilled 2 new holes in it and was able to use the rest of the existing and moved it back about 2" - still not completely happy but its ok until I can build something new and almost hidden and give this one to to my daughter for her XJ
This bumper sucks, but making the best of it, price was right - FREE

Welcome to the forum!
There are so many different bumpers out there have a look around for a while taking them all in lol.
They run from poor in quality to excellent but its the details that sit them apart, compare them closely before you buy as they are a major purchase and one you hate to make more than once.
