Default JCR or dirtbound front bumper?

i just ordered me a new rear bumper from C-rock, now i need a front bumper - i dont want a winch bumper, i a reciever for a winch, i want D-ring tabs, i want unibody tie-ins, steering box brace, and i want the sides to wrap around for protection from those trees and rocks that reach out and grab you. Iv looked at several and have narrowed it down to JCR deluxe non-winch, and dirt bound non winch. anybody have any thoughts or experiance with them?

I have JCR front and rear Bumpers on my jeep. I love them. Never bent a bracket when pulling jeep out with them. My vote is JCR Offroad

I've got the same JCR bumper your looking at with a removable winch plate. This is after I rolled it over in the quarry. Not a bit of damage to the bumper and the winch stayed put. I just ordered another in for the MJ last week, and it'll be here today. I guess I'm a big fan of JCR.

JCR all the way. It looks way better when you paint it rather than leaving it unfinished like the pic you posted

I've seen both in person. Both are great but I like the style of the Dirt Bound a little better.

my vote is the dirtbound bumper. i personally like how it sticks out alittle more so i could use it as a step.

either way you choose you are going to get a great bumper.
