These have over 3000 sold and most of all are positive feedback. Can OEM from capital be that much better?

I forget what I told you? Something like 29 bucks a piece. You don't need all of them anyways. If they all are bad you have other issues.

Awesome pictures!!

Here is a little video from Rush earlier this year. The first two black cherokees were locked front and rear, the red cherokee only had a rear locker.

Of course its steeper than it looks, goes without saying.....



But yea I can't stress enough how awesome wellsville is. And its about the same distance as Rush for me. Actually just a little shorter.

been looking at front bumpers lately for the xj. i think i have somewhat settled on a stinger, maybe. what i have found in the way of stinger bumpers so far are:

rusty's - i dont like how tall it sit really
hanson - looks like it has a good and solid base to it, but can't find installed pics on others to see how tall or how far out it sticks
rough country - seems to be a good bumper and you can get a bolt on stinger

also found rusty's new trail bumper, it can still house a winch, but doesn't stick out and kill your approach angle and also doesn't sit in front of the grill. \

are there any other options out there that i just haven't found yet. winch isn't really a necessity, but i do like the look of some stingers.

Design your own! I designed these but I can't afford to build them for a few more months
