I finally pulled the trigger and ordered mine from the local dealer. I told him I had found it online for 528.30 (includes the winch mount and light holes). He told me there was practically no mark up when sold for $560. I said, Ok, I'll buy it online... in the end, he sold it to me for $545 and I won't have to pay the $40 to ship it. Sounds good to me!

in all seriousness, I have the crush cans still in my garage, and if you really wanted them to be replaced (I can't imagine why) I'd send them to you. You'd need to tack weld them on, and get new covers from a stealer or someone else on the forum. I already sent my plastic covers to someone else.
X2 im building my own shackle mounts. does pure jeep use 1/2" plate? also would you mind giving me the rough dimensions for them so i know how much steel i need? thanks

Here is the non-fog light winch bumper installed (AND BEDLINED!)

Does anyone have a picture with the Mopar fogs installed that is part number 82209880? I've seen both a big round fog and a smaller "bullet" shaped light. The online Mopar site doesn't have a photo of this part number (of course) and I'm not sure if I want to buy it.

To anyone that has purchased that part number, did that include the mounting hardware? I already have the wiring harness extender. Thanks.

i just ordered some hi dollar shackels, but one of the features is they have locking pins to prevent them from backing out - which it appears yours are doing??? best tighten them up before you lose them!

That's why I always take some stiff wire and simply wrap it through the bolt and then around the loop. Loosely, just to prevent it form backing out. this way I don't have to tighten the bolts down so hard that when I need to get them out while in 3' of mud, it's easy to do. Also, I put grease on the threads first. This is the same concept that racers use when putting safety wire through nearly every nut and bolt on their cars. I'm not sure I have a close up pic handy. But I actually have two shackels sitting right next to me that I could photograph if someone really needs me to.

I had not installed them yet I was just posting that the 3/4" d-rings pin fit through the hole. The original Mopar mount holes only took the 5/8" pins and now Mopar has changed them.

But I do check them every few days on the front and rear because they do come loose. I like the idea of the pins.
