OPTION 1
http://www.jcroffroad.com/Merchant2/...egory_Code=XJB
pricey but tire carrier

OPTION 2
http://www.jcroffroad.com/Merchant2/...egory_Code=XJB
simple, gets the job done

as for the front bumper, i'm looking for something that can withstand a car accident(wrong mentality but i hit a Dakota w/ my cherokee and I got OWNED!)

http://www.jcroffroad.com/Merchant2/...egory_Code=XJB
OPTION 1 i like the look but it comes with a price tag

http://www.jcroffroad.com/Merchant2/...egory_Code=XJB
OPTION 2 I like this cuz it has the receiver hitch so you can have removable winch(lower theft or winch from the rear if necessary)

http://www.jcroffroad.com/Merchant2/...egory_Code=XJB
OPTION 3 Cheap, some protection, light tabs.

DECISIONS, DECISIONS! Maybe someone will give me some helpful ideas about which to consider

From looking at my posts someone may think I only looked at JCR. They just have some really good options that i want/like.

I also checked out http://www.tomken.com/catalog.php?se...%3Drearbumpers but nice things come with a price.

Buy a welder instead. Then you can make your own front/rear bumpers, sliders, skids, and whatever else. It will also save you money in the end.

If I didn't have roomates. OR Live in a basement. OR Live in an apartment.
These are the only reasons NOT to own a welder.

I would already own a welder. You are right though, if you got the space DO IT and you will be able to fabricate ANYTHING!

As for me.........I will have to wait a few years.

I forgot to mention if you are putting a bumper/receiver combo on the rear to make sure you get frame rail tie-ins. Other wise you'll need a welder anyways to put your jeep back together once you rip the bumper off.
