I have the LOD rear bumper and basket and am very pleased with it. I ordered directly from LOD and I think I waited about 4-5 weeks. Only complaint is that the built in Hi Lif Jack mount required that the spare be removed before you can access the jack and the spare mount required a TF spare tire spacer to mount the spare with stock wheels.

Ohhhhh,, I was afraid of that with the stock wheels. I did ask the question and was told I should not need one. I don't want to have to wait for one to show up after I get my bumper,, and I don't want to order one if I don't need it.
How long ago did you get your bumper Jbroom? maybe things have changed.

I absolutely love mine. The Jeep is actually quieter now than when I had the spare on my tailgate - not a single rattle or clunk! The only thing I'm not a fan of is having to take the entire bumper off to get to the lights. Hopefully they never burn out and it's not an issue!

BTW, don't expect to get everything at once. I got my bumper on Saturday, tire carrier on Monday, lights and mouting hardware on Wednesday, and 3rd Brake Light bracket on Friday. Instructions... still waiting for those

Default LoD Bumpers

For those of you with the mid width front.... what is involved in getting the factory fogs in the bumper? I understand that you have to "lengthen" the wires for the factory fogs to fit in the bumper?

What has been your experience with that? Is it a problem?
