Default Brush guard

Hey I just started on this forum. I would like some feed back. I just drop a new engine in my 98 XJ and I want to put a custom front bumper and brush guard on it. Any ideas?

Welcome to the forum!!

I'm not sure what your asking. Do you want recommendations on places to buy bumpers, or do you want to make your own?

I guess I was asking which brush guard would be the best to put on? Do you know anyone that will custom make a brush guard based in Michigan? I want a guard with a winch mount also

if u want just a winch mount, Detour sells them

http://www.detoursusa.com/xjbackbone.php

if you want a brand new, heavy duty winch bumper, then CSL has a pretty good selection that covers some of the major ones

or you can make ur own, its pretty easy if you have access to a welder
