Default Rear bumper opinions

I am considering between the rock Hard bumper with tire carrier or Hanson Offroad. Let me know what you guys think or any other options you like. Thanks, Mike

I run a Rigid RbM rear bumper and Hanson front bumper. The Rigid is much better designed and considerably stronger than the Hanson. I wish I would have purchased the Rigid front instead of the Hanson but I didn't know about it at the time. Terry at Rigid is great to work with and does excellent work. I did have to modify the quarter panels for the rear but I think he also makes a rear bumper that doesn't require modifications. It is not as cheap as others out there but it's definately worth the money.

Check out the JCR bumpers, they are strong and well made, plus they are way less expensive.

be careful when going with JCR ... I know with their rock sliders it is hit or miss weather they fit correctly or not .... We have 3 XJ's running JCR sliders and 2 out of the 3 did not line up properly at all. just my 2 cents

I was looking at the "Tailbone" by Detours. Looks like a good well thought out solution. The site is detoursusa.com. But I just checked before posting and it looks like they're back ordered or having some sort of issues.
