I'm going with Rugged Ridge. There are way too many good reviews on that bumper to overlook.

only thing is it may not match what you're looking for color-wise. My other suggestion would be OR-Fab. They come in 2 different finishes - bicycle black & textured.
I'm getting the arb front bumper. I don't know how the rear will look without a spare. And I want it to match the fender flare and stock bumper

Any rattle issues with the RR Tire carrier in the reviews?

Between those two I'd get the mopar. I've got one and the coating is tough, install is easy, an the corner protection is great. I wish the shackle tabs looked a little stouter, but they are strong enough to tug on. It's also notched for a hitch.

Look at OR-Fab.... They are awesome and have 2 different styles of just rear bumpers. One is a flat style and the other is a tube style. Click on the bottom of my sig to see more! Good Luck!

that arb looks nice in the pic. price isnt to big of a matter...the other thing is i would like to purchase thru northridge 4x4. they dont have the mopar.

i am simply looking for the best bumper without a spare. some look better than others... and the tow hook option on the mopar is a plus.

i am fairly certain that the mopar will be my choice...anyone that wants to shed light on any other bumpers...i would greatly appreciate it.

thanks alot!

i know...however im not even gonna have a spare on my tailgate. so i was wondering which would look the best without a tire.

i like the pure jeep rear full width but it doesnt match the colors of my jeep. so im thinging xhd or mopar off road.

my gut is telling me mopar off road...but i cant be 100% for sure yet.
