Default New JCR Bumper put on






No fitment issues. Only thing was the directions it comes with leaves out a few things. But it came out great.

I want to order that bumper soon. Did you lose any lift on your front end? Also, how much was it total?

Before I put the bumper on I had 1 inch spacers, along with the coil isolator on top of the spring. And it was about 1/4 inch lower in the front. So with this we took out the isolator and spacer, and put in a 2 inch spacer. And it's about even. So I'm guessing the bumper weighed it down about 1/4 inch or maybe a 1/2 inch. But I'm not exactly sure. I think it came to around 360-370. With tie ins and D-rings. It was during the 20 percent off sale.

Looks good. I have the same one and they are tuff. I rear ended a camry at about 20 mph and did like $4700 to the car and it just shifted my bumper about 1/2 inch and put a scratch on it. Probably would have been worse with out the frame tie ins.
My brake line busted when she pulled out in front of me, thats why i hit her.

I love my front bumper from JCR... I got the prerunner bumper. I never got instructions though... might have been because I picked mine up. It took three people to put it on.

It would push your frame in about 3" if you rear end a late 90's Buick with stock everything ..... Nice looking bumper lol
