JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default Thoughts on smittybilt rear bumper 76855

I was wondering what people's thoughts were on this bumper, I found one on kijiji from a guy for 300$ but is that to much? There is no tire carrier with it.

Not a bad deal....the tire carrier was the issue some of them had it wiggled and wore loose where it clamped...so no tire carrier no issue...its a good bumper they are all pretty much the same for $300 I say if you like it go for it....

So I had to cut the hidden hitch off, back plate off my frame is bent from the previous owner where the hitch goes and I couldn't get that piece back straight, even with a 3/4 ton cumalong and heat on it it would t bend back straight. So I had to cut the plate off the back to get it to fit, will have to re weld that piece after, but so far I like the look.
