No. He would've been in an ambulance. That bumper absorbed a ridiculous amount of inertia. The 3/16" steel split up the middle and folded 1ft. Then the sway bar made contact and, along with the motor, took the rest of the impact. That JCR bumper was his crumple zone.

I broke both my turn signal markers today helping my89xj move Barney to a resting place.


Worth it to help out. He also gave me his MAP vacuum line since mine was cracked. I'm backfiring less now lol

Yeah. You are right. I helped this guy fix an XJ that got into a fight with an old dodge pickup. It bent up the steal brackets attached to the bumper something awful. He cut them off and welded on a fab bumper.

I know they're cheap. But, for now, they are not a necessity. I'm about to start buying the parts I need to go up another 1.5". Although with the new 33's, I gotta jump out now to avoid all the mud on the rocker. Lol
Oh, my dirtbound winch bumper should ship tomorrow. Whoop.
