Will a front bumper off a 95' Cherokee fit my 97' Cherokee? Just the steel center piece is bent, both end caps are still good. Found a guy advertising a front bumper off a 95' on craigslist, but no photos. Trying to save a trip if someone already knows the answer. Thanks in advance!

Part #'s are different,the 97+ mounting brackets shown here don't look like the ones on my '96,and the '97+ bumper looks shorter.

I have a stock bumper off of my '98 I've been trying to get rid of, too bad you're in Illinois though!

Yeah, based on the catalog photos and description, the front bumper changed for 97. That's a bummer, because this guy was wanting to sell is for $30! Thanks for the help.

Where are you located, and how much would you want for it. I only need the steel center section, as I think all my corner plastic is good. I'm told shipping is only about $20 on UPS ground.

I'm located in York, PA. I'd take 40 for it if you pay the shipping. The steel is all good, no dents. Could use a repaint though, or I'd repaint it if I were to use it. If you give me your ZIP I could get it quoted. The bumper caps had the factory foglight holes enlarged for slightly larger lights. If you just want the steel that's fine.

That's going to be the cheapest to ship through either UPS ground or USPS parcel select.

I'd check both of those and see which is cheaper. UPS tends to be cheaper for large heavy things. However, if that bumper is pretty light USPS might surprise you. (use parcel select and not priority.)

Thanks for the tips. It's not real heavy at all, just kind of large/bulky, obviously. And if OP is down for the deal, that money's going straight to you buddy!

Sorry for the delay... You could either ship it to my house in Illinois (61275), or my office in Iowa (52722), whichever is cheaper. I have to paint it no matter what, since the bumper and caps are painted to match the vehicle color. See if you can get a price to ship only the steel portion, and an option to ship everything. Thanks!

I'll have to measure it for the exact dimensions, and not sure how much it weighs, but UPS calculator is showing about $31 bucks shipped to your Illinois address. Is your office address considered commercial? Showing around $27 for there. Based on my rough estimate of 25 lbs.

TPBALDWIN

Yes, the 52722 zip would be considered commercial. Is that estimate for the whole thing, or just the steel?

That's just the steel. Can't imagine the end caps would cost much more since they are light, but they would add some bulk. I did not get a chance to get out to the garage yesterday but I will definitely after work today.

Thanks! Let me know.
