Olympic 4x4 500 Series Rock Bumpers
Any one have these bumpers, front and/or rear on their JK? What's you're you call? Love em, hate em, awesome? How much do they weigh (no weight info on the website)? Do you think they are well made and sturdy? Would you recommend them?
Thanks,
Dukie

I had this front bumper on my Cherokee. It was awesome. I also had their stinger bar as well. I would spring for the textured color since it seems more durable.
Definitely would like to know the weight and feedback, since I want one for my JK. Also, what about towing options? Can factory hooks be used?

My front Rock Bumper arrived this week and is sitting on my living room floor waiting to be installed this weekend. I got the one without the hitch mount.
Shipping weight according to UPS is 30 lbs. It is very sturdy, nice clean welds (the few that are visible on the inside), and a flawless finish, and is made in U.S.A. Factory fogs and tow hooks can be reused. I read all I could find on this bumper and it seems it can take a beating. Shipped to my door for $277 from 4wd.com.
I plan to take lots of pics of the install when I do it this weekend. I'll post 'em up and let you know how it goes.

...i took the stock hooks off but i doubt i'll be using them.
...i would like to see some D-rings on that bumper though.
...problem is that the lic. plate has to go between the fogs so the D-rings will have to go outside of the fogs. not sure what that will look like.
