Default After market bumper help.

I'm looking to get an after market front bumper for my 2000 XJ. Can anyone make a recommendation? I want something that isnt so heavy that it causes the nose of my Jeep to dip.

These are the two I'm considering.

I just got a jcr bumper for my XJ and I was wondering if you could recommend a good place to relocate the vacuum canister that was mounted to the inside of the old bumper.

I have been looking at the OR-Fab bumper myself for awhile now. The site you found it at is ridiculous it's $443 everywhere. I just can't bring myself around to pay that much money for so little IMO and without the stinger bar.

I'm waiting till Holiday season where tons of sales come out.

I relocated mine behind the battery, plenty of space and the lines should be long enough to reattach it there. I didnt even secure it, it just sits there fine

Build your own. Its much cheaper and you can design something that fits your needs.
