Anyone have a pic of an ARB rear bumper that clearly shows how it fits with the factory hitch? I've searched the web (including ARB's own web site) and can't find what I'm looking for.
Thanks,
Nathan

Yup, thats mine. The stock hitch fits fine. I did not do the install but they did not mention any problems. If you need any specific pictures let me know.
Here is a straight on shot.
And the front.

Looks like there is a bar attached under the ARB front bumper. Is this bar designed to protect the sway bar? I noticed ARB does not sell a skid plate for the front.

Im just curious... why buy the REAR ARB when you can buy the Mopar with the tire carrier and they look exactly the same? Then you get the weight of the spare off the tailgate. The Mopar rear bumper isnt that expensive either.

The absolute #1 reason I'm considering the ARB bumpers, both front and rear, is the provision they have made for a Hi-Lift. The Hi-lift is sooooooooo esential when I go off road. I can do just about any thing with it. Sure, it takes a bit of effort, but with it you can winch, pull, lift and move your way out of trouble. So many of the aftermarket bumpers use sharp angles that would be dangerous to jack from. The ARB has cut outs that are purpose made for hi-lift jacking. That proves to me that the ARB is made by people who use them off road, not day trippers trying to look like rock crawlers.
All that and ARB quality is always amazing.
