Im looking to buy a rear bumper for my XJ. Just something plain. No D rings Just a Reciever built in to use as a tow point/move small trailer. Looking to spend around $200.Any ideas where to get one? Most are double in price.

these look to be a great deal but i cant get past the design of the rear bumper leaving a huge unfinished look under the taillights. I wish it wrapped around and filled that void....

 

www.jcroffroad.com there is a vendor here who sells them here. I have one of there rear bumpers and it's amazing. Use it for towing and it does the job perfectly.

 

Personally I wouldn't go for the eBay ones, by the description they don't seem to tie into the unibody, with for legit tow points, you're gonna want.

Whatever bumpers you look at, the tie in is the portion you're gonna want to pay the most attention to if you're planning on towing.

 

I wouldn't trust those bumpers... The front bumper is made from 3"x4"x1/8" tubing and measures 60".

 

Crap I can't believe I overlooked the 1/8 inch.

Yeah I'd pass on those lol.

Check into

Nates4x4-Which is probably closer to your dollar amount

Thanks! That Nates4x4 bumper looks like it will do the trick. Anyone use them before?

 

i have Nate's ZJ winch bumper and I know a guy with the TJ bumpers. We're both very pleased with the quality. You'll have to paint it though- they come unfinished.

 

I baught the one from Ebay. Looks really good on my XJ, but I have the folded lower quarter panel mod so it fits really nice.

 

Here is a pic. Also it comes with no frame tie ins so you have to make your own.

 

Staangs Fab, JCR and a few others. Personally I'd go with the SF ones but if you want something a little weaker to save a bit of weight the JCR one is a good option.

 

That doesnt look too bad. Any side shots?

 

Look at hudfab bumpers he a vendor here

 

L&l has a nice rear w/ reciever

 

JCR for me. For 200 bucks youre not gonna find much. You'll have to spend a little more or get lucky and find a used one on Craigslist or something.

 

Here you go. And I have towed a small trailer with my crotchrocket on it many times with no tie in brackets and I am happy to say that I still have the bike, the trailor and also the bumper
