Going to pick up my ARB front bumper and Warn Powerplant in the a.m. Then we'll see how long it takes for me to install......I'm sooooooo exicted!!!!

The installation isn't that bad. Working alone, I did mine in about three hours (bumper plus Warn 9.5ti). I've got a compressor and air tools though, that sped things up some. The most difficult part of the installation is working with the captive nuts (you'll see what I mean) and getting the fairlead torqued (I used a basin wrench) because the fairlead sits in a recessed area of the bumper.

Don't over-tighten the screws holding the amber running lights in, the plastic cracks easily and replacements only come in pairs - for $35! Don't ask me how I know.

Superior bumper though. Massive, strong, beautiful welds, and integrates perfectly with the stock fenders. Here's mine...

I think I've decided on the ARB. I like the AEV, but its a lot more money and I can't justify the cost difference.

They are the only two that are very high quality and that I think match up well with the stock fenders.

Good choice! I think they even look better in person.

I like the looks of your Jeep a lot. I too have a Silver 4 door Rubicon (6 speed freedom top too) and I think it'll look great on there. I think I'm going to bedline it though to match up with the fenders better. Its only money.

I also like the fact that I can run it without a winch, and still look decent, till I can afford to add a winch later. The ones on here that cover it up with a front plate still look good.

Nice bumper! is there a matching rear bumper? or can someone post some rear bumpers also to see how the combo looks.
