I already received the front bumper and I love it...I'm just discouraged by the wait and constant promising of "3 more weeks". In addition, without the D-ring mounts, anybody who has ordered the front bumper and received it, we have no front tow hooks, which as you know, can be a real problem off-road. My trips to Tellico have been hampered since I didn't have a front tow hook. That said, I fabbed up the old factory tow hooks which looks awful but works for now.

I also ordered the rear bumper with d-rings...After waiting a month I called them and they said 3 more weeks.So after 3 weeks I called again and they said 3 more weeks. After 3 more weeks I called them and they said 3 more weeks. That's when I cancelled the order..I'll never buy or order from them again. But thats just me..Good luck with your order..

Who keeps telling you 3 weeks? Purejeep?

Not to defend Purejeep but you pretty much will have to wait for any bumper you order right now. Also the purejeep bumper is very high quality. The rear tire carrier is more like 30-45 days out from what i was told. They really dont even exist yet except for a couple of prototypes.

Remember you just bought a new vehicle and if you would like a company to throw together a pile of crap and ship it to you that can happen but not from purejeep.

By the way we have fronts in stock not sure who everybody is ordering from and waiting.

I have absolutely no problem waiting and I understand the issues regarding a new vehicle. That said, I would rather the vendor tell me "It's going to be a while, maybe 3 months before it ships" instead of me constantly calling and hearing "3 more weeks." This has been going on since late January, so you can understand my agitation.
If they had done that, instead of telling me 3 weeks every time I call, I wouldn't be complaining.
David, you were very honest with me regarding the FT kit I ordered from you, and I appreciate that. You explained the issues and gave me honest lead times, and I would highly recommend you to anybody.
But getting the runaround when you order over a thousand dollars worth of gear is unacceptable (in my honest opinion).

Thanks! I'm not trying to be argumentative, honest. I know your work, as I've watched it for quite a few years via JU. So, I trust your opinion. With that in mind, they only thing they don't offer is a built in receiver. Mainly the reason I went with LoD.

Default Mine arrived immediately!

I just ordered one late last week, and it arrived today. Immediate shipping! Unfortunately I had already canceled the order and re-ordered one from Shrockworks after reading this thread. So I had to refuse delivery (Sorry, PJ!). Tip: PJ now has at least one sitting there ready to go!

The D-ring things were backordered, according to the packing slip. The Shrockworks has them properly built in, so that's cool.

I ordered the front non-winch bumper with fog lights about 3 months ago. Are you guys receiving the front winch bumper or the non-winch bumper?

This was the stubby winch bumper. No hoops or bars or other unnecessary heavy metal.

Just to hijack the thread a bit... My brother used to use a similar statement on his kids. Whenever they asked "How much longer" he ALWAYS replied "Two hours".

So, the manufacturers have a stock answer. When you ask "How long" the reply "Three weeks". Works for them!:sad:
